EnterHere's a detailed look at progression and rewards in Overwatch 2, focusing on the Battle Pass and Challenges:
Battle Pass:
How It Works:
•Structure: The Battle Pass in Overwatch 2 is divided into seasons, each typically lasting around 9 weeks. Each season has its own Battle Pass with 80 tiers of rewards, split into free and premium tracks.
•Tracks:
▪Free Track: Available to all players, offering some rewards like skins, sprays, and new heroes introduced in that season (except for Season 1 and 2 where new heroes were automatically unlocked).
▪Premium Track: Requires payment (1000 Overwatch Coins, roughly $10 USD) and includes additional rewards like exclusive skins, emotes, and Mythic skins.
•Progression: Players earn experience points (XP) through gameplay, which levels up the Battle Pass:
▪Matches Played: You earn XP for each match, with bonuses for wins.
▪Challenges: Completing challenges significantly boosts XP gains.
▪Group Bonus: Playing in a group gives a 20% XP boost for match XP.
What You Can Earn:
•Cosmetics: Skins, emotes, highlight intros, voice lines, charms, and sprays.
•Currency:
▪Overwatch Coins: Earned through weekly challenges, can be used to buy the next season's Battle Pass or items in the shop.
▪Legacy Credits: For purchasing older skins or items from the first Overwatch game.
•Heroes: Initially, new heroes were part of the Battle Pass, but from Season 10 onwards, new heroes are unlocked for free for all players after completing certain conditions.
•Mythic Skins: High-tier customization skins, available only through the premium track, with customization options.
Tips for Progression: 
•Complete Challenges: Focus on daily and weekly challenges as they provide the most significant XP.
•Play Regularly: Even without challenges, playing matches will help you progress.
•Group Up: The XP bonus for playing with friends can make a noticeable difference.
•Choose Your Fights: Play modes or roles that you're good at or enjoy to maintain a high win rate, which gives more XP.
•Event Challenges: Participate in events for additional XP and unique rewards.
Challenges:
Daily Challenges:
•Frequency: Reset every 24 hours.
•Number: Typically, there are 6 daily challenges to choose from, but you only need to complete 3 to get the full daily XP bonus.
•Benefits:
▪Each completed daily challenge grants 3,000 XP, up to 9,000 XP for completing three challenges daily.
▪They're often simpler, like winning a match or getting eliminations, which encourages daily play.
Weekly Challenges:
•Frequency: Reset every week, usually at the start of the week (Mondays in most regions).
•Number: You'll have 11 challenges to choose from each week.
•Benefits:
▪Each completed challenge awards 5,000 XP, with a total of 55,000 XP possible per week if all are completed.
▪Some challenges also reward Overwatch Coins, which can accumulate over time for future purchases.
▪Weekly challenges can be more complex, requiring specific hero usage or match conditions, thus encouraging players to try different playstyles or heroes.
Seasonal Challenges:
•Frequency: Last the duration of the season.
•Benefits:
▪These are typically tied to specific events or modes within the season, offering both XP and unique cosmetic items.
▪They can involve completing a set number of games in a new mode or achieving seasonal objectives.
Lifetime Challenges:
•Frequency: Permanent; do not reset.
•Benefits:
▪These are long-term goals that reward players for milestones like total games won or heroes played.
▪Rewards are usually cosmetic, like player icons or titles, but some might grant XP
Tips for Tackling Challenges:
•Prioritize: Focus on challenges that overlap or can be completed naturally as you play.
•Stack Challenges: Try to complete challenges in modes or with heroes that allow you to work on multiple at once.
•Adapt Your Play: Sometimes, it's worth playing less favored modes or heroes to knock out challenges quickly.
•Keep Track: Regularly check which challenges are active to plan your gameplay sessions effectively.
Remember, the progression system in Overwatch 2 is designed to reward regular play, teamwork, and engagement with various aspects of the game, from competitive matches to special events. Balancing your focus between enjoying the game and completing challenges for progression can enhance your overall experience.
