We’re probably years away from playing Overwatch 2 in full, but Blizzard recently revealed that it’s “decoupling” the sequel’s PvP and PvE, meaning we might be able to get our hands on at least one of the game’s core experiences. However, in the long wait, Blizzard has shared a lot of information about Overwatch 2, such as: B. the news that Bastion will be completely different in the sequel or that Doomfist will be a tank hero in it.
Thanks very much new concept art by Jayson Kirbya former Overwatch UI designer, we have our first hint of a possible Battle Pass for Overwatch 2, as reported by Attack of the Fanboy.
As you can see in the shot above, the screen clearly has an option that says “Battle Pass”. Clicking this option will likely take you straight to the main Overwatch 2 Battle Pass hub, where you might find things like challenges, stages, unlocks, and more. Of course, this is all speculation as Blizzard hasn’t revealed anything official about a Battle Pass in Overwatch 2 yet. It wouldn’t be surprising, however, as more and more games are creating them to give players something to constantly work towards.
There is also an option for a “Shop” that would fit alongside a Battle Pass. Like Fortnite’s Item Shop, players can earn skins and more by leveling up in the Battle Pass, but they may be able to purchase something they specifically want directly from the shop. Of course, that goes against Overwatch’s loot box system, but maybe Blizzard will drop that in favor of a Battle Pass. Or maybe the studio found a way to mix them up. Only time will tell now.
In the meantime, read how McCree has a new name in light of the ongoing lawsuits against Activision Blizzard, then check out this story about Blizzard’s decision to lower Overwatch 2’s default PvP count to 5v5. Read more about this new map – Monte Carlo – in Overwatch 2 afterwards.
