Overwatch 2 is a first-person hero shooter title where teams of two with five players each compete using Heroes who possess special abilities and powers. The Season 1 Battle Pass brings exciting rewards for gamers. Apart from a new Hero, it also includes a skin of a new rarity level called Mythic.

Just like its predecessor, the new title allows its users to buy various in-game items and the Battle Pass through real currency or its own version called Overwatch coins. Currently, there are two ways fans can get their hands on the said money- they can buy it or choose to earn it.

This article will take a closer look into the process of earning Overwatch coins for free.

Overwatch 2 presents its players with 11 Weekly challenges every week. Completing all 11 of them grants users a total of 60 Overwatch coins. This implies that a total of 240 coins can be earned in a month. Completing these challenges will also provide users with XP, which can be used to level up their Battle Pass tiers.

Moreover, the Battle Pass costs 1000 Overwatch coins. Meaning, players will have to complete 11 weekly challenges every week for over four months to be able to purchase it. So, while gamers can earn them for free, it will take a long time to accumulate enough.
