Why Blizzard believes Overwatch 2’s battle pass won’t break the game
When Overwatch fans realized that developer Blizzard Entertainment planned to restrict access to new Overwatch 2 heroes — like the just-revealed support ninja Kiriko — behind the game’s battle pass system, they (rightfully) had strong concerns.

In the first Overwatch, players had unfettered access to the entire roster, enabling them to switch up a team’s lineup and counter-pick heroes on the fly.
