Heathens Players who haven’t already had the opportunity to suit up as one of Overwatch’s 22 heroes, now have a chance! From November 19–22 AEDT, Blizzard are putting out the call to any prospective Overwatch agents: assemble a team and dive in during the Overwatch Free Weekend!
Every hero from Overwatch’s roster will be available during the free weekend, along with 13 maps featuring a number of different game modes. Players will also have the ability to level up, earn Loot Boxes, and collect a variety of cosmetic items. Plus, if players decide to purchase a copy of Overwatch after test driving the game, they’ll get to keep any progress that was made during the Overwatch Free Weekend— they just need to be sure to use the same Battle.net, Xbox Live or Sony Entertainment account that they played on.
The Overwatch Free Weekend client will be available for download on Windows PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One from November 19–22 AEDT. Keep an eye on the Blizzy Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram profiles for a steady stream of Overwatch information, plus additional information about installation and instructions can be found on the Official Overwatch Blog here.
