Blizzard has unveiled Overwatch 2 Season 12 today, and it brings a brilliant bonus for Xbox Game Pass subscribers. Starting September 17, Game Pass members will be able to claim a bunch of extra content for Overwatch 2, including six "awesome" hero skins and more!
To claim this content, players will have to link their battle.net accounts with a Microsoft account that holds a valid Game Pass subscription, and voila, you'll be granted this bonus content from the above date. Here's a quick breakdown of OW2's Game Pass integration and what else is included:
"Starting on September 17 you will receive an instant one-time grant of 30 Mythic prisms to spend on Mythic unlocks, and six awesome hero skins - Cardboard Reinhardt, Turtleship D.Va, Cyberdragon Hanzo, Street Runner Genji, Bee Mercy, and Cleric Lifeweaver. These items will be yours to keep, but you’ll need to login and ensure that your accounts are linked by Oct 21 to claim them."
What's more, additional content is set to drop for Xbox Game Pass members after this initial offer wraps up as well. Blizzard says to expect "additional in-game collectibles" on an ongoing basis, including "select Overwatch 2 Shop cosmetics from prior seasons, plus a stackable XP boost".
The team says that it will give us more information on this new endeavour between now and that September 17th integration date, and in the meantime, Overwatch 2 Season 12: New Frontiers arrives for all platforms on August 20.
