Overwatch 2 to Unlock All Heroes for Free for All Players Starting Season 10
-
Overwatch 2 will make all new heroes instantly available for free from Season 10 onwards, no longer requiring players to grind or pay to unlock them faster.
-
This is great news for free players, but paying players who previously bought battle passes to access heroes quicker won't get any compensation.
-
Blizzard says it has no plans to offer refunds or gifts to those who previously bought battle passes just for early hero unlocks.
-
The change will also retroactively unlock older heroes for all players that don't already have them.
-
While disappointing for some, buying battle passes was never required to get heroes, only to unlock them faster, along with other cosmetics and rewards.
