Overwatch 2 Beta begins today, and for those who have not yet received a welcome email for opting in, there’s a second 100% guaranteed way to gain access through Twitch. That’s right, after connecting your Battle[net] account to Twitch, you’ll have to tune in to a limited-time campaign that begins April 27th, 2022 @ 10:00AM PT and lasts until 6:00PM PT.
During this time period, you’ll have to watch a select group of streamers broadcasting the Overwatch PvP Beta under the Overwatch category. You’ll get access to the Twitch drops after watching any participating channel for at least 4-hours regardless of what stream you are watching from a chosen list of streamers. After gaining access to the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta, you’ll have to install the game version on the Battle.net Launcher. The list of streamers can be found here. Yes, the game even works on handheld computers, like the GPD Win 2.
