Blizzard Entertainment has announced that Overwatch 2 will not have loot boxes, but instead will have a premium (paid) battle pass and an in-game store.

Lead designer Geoff Goodman said: “Overwatch 2 will not feature loot boxes. Players will have more control over accessing new content. Thanks to the store and battle pass, players will be able to unlock new skins, weapon skins, and a variety of content.

Every piece of content earned from Overwatch and Overwatch 2 will also be available on PC and consoles thanks to cross-progression support.”

Thanks to loot boxes, players could unlock random rewards. However, players did not have complete control over access to the rewards. He had to be on the side of the luck factor to get the reward he wanted.
