Players are reporting a new bug in Overwatch 2 that forces some players to purchase skins on accident. Customer service from Blizzard Entertainment told one user that the purchases are non-refundable, leaving some players with accidental purchases.
Overwatch 2’s release has hit another snag in its rocky launch. This time, players are reporting a bug that leads users to accidentally purchase items like skins with the in-game currency, which is non-refundable.
Reddit user Dracyoshi posted a lengthy description of the bug on the Overwatch subreddit. Basically, it appears that the game will continue to register keyboard commands while users are chatting. So people who are just chatting in the Hero Gallery with friends might enter key strokes that accidentally result in them buying a skin. Dracyoshi accidentally ended up buying a Plutonium skin for 300 Legacy Credits.
This error was more minor because it only involved 300 Legacy Credits, but replies on the thread mentioned more extreme examples.
