Overwatch 2 Season 1 Battle Pass Detailed
Overwatch’s leveling system is ending, and Overwatch 2 will include a Battle Pass system. Players will gain experience to advance through the Battle Pass by completing Challenges divided into Daily, Weekly, Seasonal, and Lifetime.
Overwatch Coins, the in-game currency, are also awarded for completing Weekly Challenges. There are also Competitive and Hero Challenges, the first of which awards money that can be used to purchase Golden Weapons, and the latter is still under development. Overwatch Coin will be purchasable in the following quantities:
- 500 Overwatch Coins — $4.99
- 1,000 Overwatch Coins — $9.99
- 2,200 Overwatch Coins — $19.99
- 5,700 Overwatch Coins — $49.99
- 11,600 Overwatch Coins — $99.99.
- Battle Pass — 200 Overwatch Coins (Legendary skins can range up to 1,900)
A premium Battle Pass may be purchased to instantly unlock Kiriko and access various perks, such as player icons, weapon charms, name cards, emotes, and more. Every ten ranks, alternate Epic, and Legendary rarity skins will be awarded as skins.
Kiriko, the newest Support hero in Overwatch 2, is the focus of the game’s Season 1 battle pass. After a two-year break, Kiriko rejoins the battle alongside Sojourn and Junker Queen, completing a trio of recruits. Although Kiriko depends on the Battle Pass, other methods exist to unlock her. The hero may be yours if you only reach Tier 55 on the free track.
Cyber Demon Genji, the first Mythic Skin, will be available with the Season 1 Battle Pass. This artwork’s hero is transformed with new hair, sparkling tattoos, and a new costume. At the very conclusion of the Season 1 battle pass, you must reach Tier 80 to get the Cyber Demon Genji Mythic Skin.
