All new heroes coming to Overwatch 2 they will have to be unlocked in the game’s battle pass, in its free part, so they will not be available immediately after launch.
Jon Spector—the business leader of Overwatch and Vice President of Blizzard— published this information last night on Twitter, after leaks and rumors that claimed that the new heroes would be unlocked only in the battle pass.
The Battle Pass is a paid premium pass, which rewards players who level up through it. This information turned out to be partially true, because the new heroes will only be unlocked through the battle pass, however these heroes will be in the free part of the battle pass.
“Addressing previously released incomplete information about our Overwatch 2 Battle Pass: We will share all the details before launch, but we want to confirm that the new Overwatch 2 heroes will be available in the free portion of the Battle Pass.”
So, in this installment of Overwatch 2 It will not be necessary to pay money to unlock the new heroes. However, it can take a long time to unlock them, since it is not known where they will be in the free part.
Although, there is little to know, Overwatch 2 will be out on October 4, 2022.
