Even before logging into into their game, players can see if there will be any form of scheduled maintenance on their Battle.net application. There will be a yellow triangle in the top right of their screen announcing how long the scheduled maintenance will take, and the day(s) it will take place on.

Additionally, there is a third-party website, DownDetector, that will track reports of outages of players for Overwatch 2, and report them on a graph for people here.

Maintenance is ultimately an integral part of the Overwatch experience, so making sure that you are keeping track of when it is happening so it doesn't affect your experience too much is crucial.
