Outcry Over Overwatch 2: Diablo 4 Skins Locked Behind Controversial $39.99 Bundle

Overwatch 2 players have voiced their discontent over the way Diablo 4-themed skins are locked behind a $39.99 bundle. Blizzard recently launched Overwatch 2 Season 7, coinciding with the annual Halloween Terror event and significant balance adjustments in the popular hero shooter. Regrettably for Blizzard, many of the Season 7 changes have not been well-received by the game's community.

Since the release of Overwatch 2 Season 7's patch notes, there has been significant controversy surrounding this season. The introduction of a new group spawn system, hero balance modifications, and stricter penalties for leaving games have sparked division among players. While some players have welcomed these changes, it is evident that a considerable portion of the fanbase is dissatisfied with the adjustments brought about by the Season 7 update.

One of the most contentious issues surrounding Overwatch 2 Season 7 is the "Ultimate Battle Pass Bundle: Season Seven", the sole means of obtaining the Diablo 4-themed skins. Blizzard has heavily promoted these skins, featuring an Inarius skin for Pharah and a Lilith skin for Moira. At the time of writing, these skins are exclusively available as part of a $39.99 bundle. Individual purchase and acquisition using in-game currency are not options, prompting fans to express their frustration on social media platforms. They are particularly dissatisfied with the bundle's pricing and the fact that the skins can only be obtained through this bundle.

The bundle offers more than just the Diablo 4 skins, but there are undoubtedly fans who simply desire the skins without the additional content. Purchasing the $39.99 bundle grants players 20 Battle Pass tier skips, the Season 7 Battle Pass, two sprays, a Pumpkin skin for Bastion, and 2,000 Overwatch Coins. The value of Overwatch Coins is called into question when this premium currency cannot be used for specific shop items, such as this bundle.

It remains possible that Blizzard will take this feedback into consideration and make the Diablo 4 skins in Overwatch 2 available for individual purchase using Overwatch Coins. On the other hand, Blizzard may maintain its stance, requiring players to buy the $39.99 bundle for access to the Diablo 4 skins. For the time being, this situation represents another unpopular decision in Blizzard's approach to monetizing Overwatch 2.
