The monetization of Overwatch 2 has come under criticism more than once. Players keep finding third-party ways to earn premium currency
The Overwatch 2 community has noted that there is no need to tolerate low premium currency earnings in a Blizzard game. It turns out that there is a rather profitable third-party method that does not require you to spend time completing tasks in the game.
Overwatch 2 premium currency can be earned through the Microsoft Rewards program. Completing Microsoft missions earns points that can be used to purchase various rewards, including coveted coins for Overwatch 2.
It turns outthat a player can earn more in three weeks in Microsoft Rewards than in 13 weeks (143 activities) playing Overwatch 2.
Some in the community think that the Overwatch 2 developers are trying a strategy where you don’t have to play at all: skins are provided for Twitch views, and you can earn currency in Microsoft Rewards or in World of Warcraft.
