How much will the Overwatch 2 Battle Pass cost?
Overwatch 2 will be released as a free-to-play title with a Battle Pass system that replaces its predecessor's loot box feature.

The cost is $40 and automatically gives players access to the Season 1 Overwatch 2 Battle Pass. It will go live as soon as the game does (on October 4, 2022).
