Gaming News Overwatch 2: Will Blizzard’s team-based shooter video game really be revived?
Find our video review of Blizzard’s Shooter: Overwatch 2. Is he really who he says he is? We give you all the answers in this video!
Overwatch 2 is finally available for free on all gaming platforms! The death knell has obviously not yet rung for this license as Blizzard is doubling down by offering a content rich version 2.0 of Overwatch thanks to the launch of its first season.
Overwatch 2: For better or for worse?
Like a phoenix, the latter is reborn from its ashes to come back in a new light; however for the competition mode. In fact, Overwatch 2 is not what it claims to be. On the contrary, it’s actually a major content update, nothing more, nothing less. Those who have had the chance to gain access to the various beta phases will not be out of place. Story mode is still not available and will not be released until 2023. Mystery and gummy ball, so you have to be patient.
On the schedule for Overwatch 2’s launch: new heroines, a new map never seen before, UI modernization, UI improvement, new game mode (Advanced) and then the resumption of seasonal events, but this time completely new. If you wanted to have a small preview of what the continuation of the adventure of Chacalstein offers, that is, the Halloween event, know that we cannot do it. Blizzard has the surprise in store, so let’s wait until October 25th to find out what it’s all about.
To compensate for free access to Overwatch 2, The development teams have decided to integrate a Combat Pass. It’s not that different from the others as it offers a plethora of cosmetics to earn. Note that some are completely free, but the rewards are much more attractive if you pay $10 to get the pass.
A Battle Pass that goes beyond
On the other hand, a worrying element is available in this famous Battle Pass and will not help free-to-play players. As a matter of fact, new heroes can only be obtained by unlocking them after a certain level and so much to warn you it will take time. At least if you choose not to spend even a dime on the game, because the blue card can solve all your problems.
If you want to play for free you just have to complete challenges to gain experience in this famous Battle Pass, but others will be much more advanced than you. Pass owners receive experience bonuses, and Blizzard added the ability to purchase level caps. To put it simply, you can get all the bonuses with a deposit of a good hundred dollars without lifting a finger.
Add to this a fairly restrictive system for new players since the latter cannot play with all heroes; You don’t have to play less than 100 games to get access to all the other characters. There are other issues, of course, but our video will tell you much more.
This Battle Pass and new player restriction leaves a pretty bitter taste in our mouths, despite all the beautiful things Overwatch 2’s PvP mode has to offer.
