The premium Battle Pass priced at 1,000 OW Coins does not come with any unlocked tiers, but you do get 20% bonus XP for the remainder of your progression of the Battle Pass.

You may need to follow this procedure to reclaim your Widowmaker Noire Preorder skin. If you can let me know if this works, it would be appreciated.

The Overwatch 2 Watchpoint Pack does not come with the bonus twenty tiers unlocked. There is a separate Premium Battle Pass listing that comes with the 20 tiers unlocked however purchasing the Watchpoint Pack will make that option no longer available for purchase. The Watchpoint Pack does come with the season 1 premium battle pass and an additional 2,000 Overwatch Coins which you can use those coins to buy additional tiers if you want. Learn more about the Watchpoint Pack here.

The new Overwatch 2 client should use your existing files, so there is no need to uninstall, however, you need at least 50 GB of free space to run Overwatch.

For one of my final games in Overwatch 1, I bonked Andy with a hammer.

Basically, we recently updated our system with Twitch, so most players will discover their account link is no longer intact. This is the first promotion we are running with this new system.

If you see your Twitch username in your connections list on account.battle.net/connections, you are good to go. See my image above as an example.

When it comes to product licenses received those are still separated by region, which has nothing to do with playing the game on different datacenters even if you use a VPN. You will still access your cosmetics on your account when you log in.

Hiya folks,

When Overwatch 2 launches on October 4th, Workshop development tools will be temporarily unavailable as the team is still putting some finishing touches on this feature. Our goal is to have the scripting interface Workshop tool back up and running in a future game update, date to be announced. Your current valid Workshop and custom game codes from Overwatch will still work, so please be sure to save any custom game modes/codes that you’d like to bring with you to Overwatch 2

Thanks, and we’ll see you on October 4th!

Sorry for the duplicate. Looks like we had our blog system duplicate the comment topics for our news article. Find the current active thread here: Initializing systems! Updating Competitive play for Overwatch 2

PVE is definitely not canceled.

While we are still working on our core PVE modes that we will be releasing later, there will be a taste of what we have in store coming up with our new Halloween Terror event, Junkenstein’s Revenge: Wrath of the Bride, that we teased in our Battlepass Trailer.

Flotaku said it best, there really is no way for the game to determine when a person leaves due to an accidental disconnection or power outage versus someone who could fake those issues in order to abuse any loopholes. We also don’t want players playing Competitive if they are frequently encountering issues either, and they should take time to fix and thoroughly test in low-stake modes like Quick Play that those issues are resolved. This is why the starting penalty is relatively small but will quickly ramp up. If a player continues to ignore their technical issues and continue to leave games, the result can be a suspension from Competitive Play for the remainder of the season, which will result in the loss of all end-of-season rewards. Hope this information helps, and I hope your technical issues will resolve soon.

For anyone who sees this, if you are dealing with persistent disconnection or game crashes, our customer service team may be able to help, which you can reach out ...
