Overwatch 2 Season 15 heralds a transformative era for the acclaimed hero shooter, introducing an innovative perk system and the highly anticipated return of loot boxes. This season features a ranked reset, bringing fresh gameplay dynamics that promise to engage players in exciting new challenges. In addition, a new battle pass is available, though it emphasizes gameplay improvements over thematic cosmetic content.
This season introduces an important aspect: competitive points can now be earned to unlock exclusive Galactic weapon skins for heroes, attainable exclusively through competitive matches.
A standout feature of the Season 15 battle pass is the integration of loot boxes, which, while not directly purchasable, can be earned as part of the battle pass and through fulfilling various challenges. Players can find three legendary loot boxes within the battle pass, two of which are exclusive to the premium version. These loot boxes guarantee a legendary item, contrasting with standard loot boxes that offer only a slim chance for such rewards. The battle pass also boasts a range of other cosmetics, including emotes, highlight intros, victory poses, and name cards available in both free and premium tiers.
The premium battle pass showcases striking legendary skins like Rainy Day Kiriko, Goumang Hanzo, Cyber Enforcer Zarya, and Toxic Venture. Additionally, players will find Mythic shards for acquiring the new Pixiu Mythic Zenyatta skin as well as previously released Mythic skins and weapon skins, such as the Lead Rose Mythic Ashe gun skin. The premium battle pass is priced at 1,000 Overwatch coins (approximately $10), with a bundle option available for $40 that includes two exclusive legendary skins, the premium battle pass, 20 tier skips, and 2,000 Overwatch coins (about $20).
Stay tuned for more updates as Overwatch 2 continues to evolve in this exciting new season.
