Overwatch 2’s season 2 battle pass will let players get access to Ramattra earlier, and earn XP and Overwatch Coins faster, game director Aaron Keller confirms.
Overwatch 2’s second season launches Tuesday, bringing with it a new tank hero, a new map, and a new battle pass. Season 2 will also see a substantial change in how — or rather how quickly — Blizzard will let players who don’t pay for the game’s premium battle pass get access to its new hero, Ramattra. Unlike Kiriko, season 1’s new hero, who could be unlocked at battle pass level 55, Ramattra will be available to all players who reach level 45 in Overwatch 2’s new battle pass.
Overwatch game director Aaron Keller announced the change on Monday, saying, “After reviewing data for Season 1, we’re moving Ramattra in to Tier 45 of the Battle Pass and making a few more weekly challenges easier to complete.”
Making Overwatch 2’s weekly challenges easier to complete is another way of saying players should be able to progress through the battle pass faster and earn more currency (Overwatch Coins) going forward.
