Multiple threads have surfacedon the Overwatch subreddit about it, and it seems everyone is affected regardless of platform:
The good news is, Blizzard is aware of it. Over on the official Blizzard forums, WyomingMist posted the following message:
Hey everyone, I am seeing the reports of players not able to log into North American servers at this time. I will do what I can to investigate and raise the issue with Blizzard CS but its late hours so it may be some time before I can get an answer.
UPDATE: I can confirm Blizzard CS is aware and is investigating. This appears to affect NA regions for World of Warcraft and Overwatch.
The official Blizzard Customer Service Twitter account, which handles these things, have also tweeted the following:
We're currently investigating an issue affecting our authentication servers, which may result in failed or slow login attempts. #BlizzCS
