The 2020 Atlanta Reign season was the second season of the Atlanta Reign's existence in the Overwatch League and the team's second under head coach Brad "Sephy" Rajani. Atlanta planned to host two homestand weekends in the 2020 season, with the first at the Coca-Cola Roxy in late March and the second at a different, undetermined location in mid-June,[1] but all homestand matches were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Reign finished in the quarterfinals in each of the three midseason tournaments of the 2020 season.[2][3][4] After advancing through the North America play-ins to the season playoffs, Atlanta was eliminated from North America playoff bracket by the Florida Mayhem.[5]
