This Overwatch the guide aims to explain what is Prestige Pass and how does it work.
It's official: Overwatch has defeated Marvel Rivals
Blizzard's original ground-breaking hero shooter returns to its throne as it officially beats out its Marvel-themed competition.
What is Prestige Pass in Overwatch?
S1: Conquest
Talon x Overwatch is a five-week event that asks players to join one of two competing factions and rewards them for completing challenges. Each faction has unique rewards, including player icons, voice lines, and weapon enchantments. Similar to the Battle Pass, rewards are earned gradually as players earn Notoriety Points for completing daily and weekly challenges.
Once the initial Faction Pass is completed and all rewards are earned, players have the option to switch factions and receive the appropriate rewards, or stay with their current faction and advance to their Prestige Pass. AND Prestige Pass is simply another phase of rewards for sticking to your chosen faction, which contains four normal loot boxes and one epic or legendary loot box.
Basically, when Blizzard says it's rewarding players with two Prestige Passes, that's a fancy way of saying “free loot boxes.”
Whether you're Team Talon or Team Overwatch, you're likely progressing through your first natural Prestige Pass if you've already earned the initial rewards and stuck with the same faction.
All compensation rewards awarded in Overwatch
All players who completed at least one event challenge in the first week of the Talon x Overwatch event are eligible for comp rewards. All rewards are also additive, meaning players who were able to get loot boxes from the previous week's Prestige Pass will still get additional loot boxes to compensate. However, it may take a few days for all players to receive their rewards.
In total, eligible players will receive the following rewards:
-
12 basic loot boxes
-
1 Epic Loot Box
-
1 Legendary Loot Box
-
2 voice lines (stay, Emre)
-
2 regular titles (Overwatch, Talon)
-
1 Weapon Charm (Overwatch)
-
1 name tag (Emre)
Moreover, according to the official Overwatch announcement from Blizzard, will lower the pass completion requirements for Legendary Faction titles in response to players not being able to pass during a server outage. This change is planned during the seasonal Midcycle Patch.
The Overwatch The S1: Conquest patch notes are huge and represent a huge list of changes to the game. If it's been a while since you last played, now is the perfect time to go back.
