Overwatch 2: How to Unlock All Characters

In this guide we will discover how to unlock all the characters of Overwatch 2, the PvP title of Blizzard Entertainment. Let’s see how to do it

The new title of Blizzard, released a few months ago, certainly represents an important turning point and marks a clear split with its predecessor. Although it doesn’t change much from a general point of view, the first real difference is the switch to 5v5 PvPthus abandoning one hero per team. Also, the title adopts the modello free-to-play con Battle Passthus making it accessible to everyone, but with some details to unlock during the various seasons.

The main difference, however, is with the introduction of the First-Time User Experience. This is nothing more than a system similar to an immense tutorial that slowly introduces new players to the game limiting the heroes that can be used from the beginning. In this guide we will therefore find out how to unlock all other characters which are not “open access” su Overwatch 2 and we will also give some advice for the next heroes to come out over time.

How to unlock all Overwatch 2 characters

As a new player you will therefore have access only to 13 heroes. This choice by the developers is meant for facilitate the overall experience of those approaching the title for the first time, preventing being overwhelmed by doubts about which hero to use first. We list you below all those available divided according to their category:

  • Tank: Reinhardt, Winston, Orisa, Zarya
  • Harm: Soldato-76, Reaper, Pharah, Torbjorn, Tracer, Widowmaker
  • Support: Mercy, Lucio, Moira

Once you get the hang of these characters, you will surely feel the urge to unlock all the others, not only for a complete roster, but also to vary your overall experience. To unlock almost all heroes you will have to spend some time and complete many unranked quick matches. To unlock every single character from the original game in fact you will have to complete 150 games. Obviously many will be unlocked before that threshold and to give you a precise idea we leave you a list below with all the characters, how many games you will have to complete to unlock them.

  • Genji – 1 match
  • D.Va – 2 games
  • Cassidy – 3 games
  • Well – 4 games
  • Hanzo – 9 matches
  • Junkrat – 12 games
  • Roadhog – 15 games
  • Symmetra – 20 matches
  • Zenyatta – 25 games
  • Bastion – 30 games
  • Sigma – 40 games
  • Ashe – 50 games
  • Brigitte – 60 matches
  • Mei – 70 matches
  • Doomfist – 85 matches
  • Baptiste – 100 matches
  • Sombra – 115 games
  • Wrecking Ball – 130 matches
  • Echo – 150 games
  • Sojourn – Completing hero challenges or buying her from the shop
  • Junker Queen – Completing hero challenges or buying her from the shop
  • It’s there – Completing hero challenges or buying her from the shop
  • Ramattra – Completing hero challenges or buying her from the shop

How to unlock new Overwatch 2 characters

Unlocking new Overwatch 2 heroes works differently than unlocking the traditional Overwatch cast. The easiest way to unlock new heroes is to reach level 45 of the Battle Pass relating to the season in which the hero was released. For example, Ramattra was unlockable until a few days ago by reaching level 45 of the season 2 pass. In the current season 3the one at the time of writing this article, there are no heroes to unlockbut those that arrive later will have the same unlock method.

You just need to level up accumulate experience by completing any game or the various daily and weekly challenges proposed. For a little boost you can play with other players. In fact, teaming up will allow you to have a 20% more experience. Alternatively you can purchase the Battle Pass Premium to immediately have access to the new hero.

However, if you can’t unlock heroes this way, don’t worry. Reaching level 45 is just one of the seasonal goals. However, once the season is over, that will be enough complete the required hero challenges to gain access to that character. These are about learning each hero’s skills in the practice field e win a certain amount of games using a certain category. In addition to this, you can still decide to buy it in the shop to have him immediately on the roster.

Have a good game everyone!
