Blizzard Entertainment brings back boxes with booty Overwatch 2More than two years after dismantling them from the game. Loot boxes will return in season 15 Overwatch 2which starts on February 18, Blizzard announced on Wednesday during the Spotlight presentation.
As in the original Overwatcharches in Overwatch 2 It will give players a random range of cosmetics (skins, emotions, voice lines and sprays). This time, however, “we keep pleasure, being transparent about what is inside, and the speed of various declines since the opening of each box,” said Gavin Winter, senior designer of systems in Overwatch 2.
Overwatch 2Boot boxes will be available at the free battle track and thrown out as part of weekly prizes. And although players will be able to get loot boxes only for the game, Winter said, it looks like Blizzard plans to pass more with drops, and other unannounced ways. There will be two types of booty boxes: standard and legendary, with the latter guarantee legendary cosmetics.
The Blizzard interface for the recent loot system shows that players will have a legendary cosmetic for at least one in 20 boars with booty that they open. There is also a duplicate system that works to avoid giving you things you already have. According to Blizzard, the system will turn and give you something equal instead of duplicate. If players already receive the ownership of cosmetics, they will earn progress to receive another box with loot. It would be extremely occasional, said Blizzard, if not Overwatch 2 The player is the owner of every cosmetics in the game. “We checked,” Game Director Aaron Keller told me.
It sounds like Overwatch 2 Players should expect that they will receive a very gigantic number of booty boxes in season 15, because Blizzard raises the return of a randomized loot system. Keller showed me in an interview that the number may be in hundreds Overwatch 2Great recent season.
The return of booty boxes is a great reversal for Blizzard, but it is a movement based on the player’s opinion. Złapowe original boxes Overwatch They were controversial with some players because of their randomized nature and the ability to buy them for real money-even if players could get free boot boxes through the game and events. But when Blizzard removed the boxes with the booty in 2022 Overwatch 2Players were shocked by stickers of current skin prices. The legendary skins of the game cost about USD 20, and mythical skins cost about USD 40 if they are purchased for real money. Packages of the skin from thematic events can cost the same as playing at the full price. Those who did not want to pay real money for skins, but they had an alternative: long, leisurely accumulation of currencies in the game.
High but competitive prices Overwatch 2 Skins led many players to pine for the venerable days when they opened free arches and shower with prizes. Soon these days will come back, but it is currently not clear how a satisfactory revitalized system will be. Despite this, dopamine hits consisting in the fact that turning the machine again to the nest with Overwatch loot may be enough.
