Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard has already yielded numerous major titles for the company's subscription service — now, in fact, another big name has just arrived there. In a surprise announcement, the North American giant announced that Overwatch 2 is now available on Xbox Game Pass with exclusive benefits for players.
Surely, you must be asking yourself: “but Overwatch 2 isn't it free?”. Yes, it is — but Game Pass players will have some additional perks. By linking your Battle.net account to the service, you’ll be able to unlock exclusive bonuses, including six new skins for Reinhardt, D.Va, Hanzo, Genji, Mercy, and Lifeweaver.

If you link your accounts by November 11, you’ll also receive a one-time bonus of 30 Mythic Prisms, which can be used to purchase cosmetics and upgrades from the Mythic Item Shop.
With the link, you will also have access to cosmetics from the last three seasons — which is a great opportunity to secure those skins that you missed out on, by the way. In addition, Game Pass subscribers will be able to take advantage of a 10% XP bonus to level up the Battle Pass, as well as ranked matches.

Remembering that Overwatch 2 will not be available to play via the cloud — mode available only to Game Pass Ultimate subscribers.
