It has recently been discovered that Activision-Blizzard is going to be locking new Overwatch heroes behind a Battle Pass, forcing players to either grind countless hours to unlock them, or pay money to Blizzard for expedited access.
Not only does this create an incredibly toxic ecosystem of haves & have-nots within the Overwatch community, Having restricted access to certain heroes also destroys the core mechanic of Overwatch's gameplay. You can't effectively play "Rock, Paper, Scissors" if it costs $15 to unlock the rock.
As a community, we are pledging to not spend one single dollar in support of Overwatch 2 until the decision to lock heroes behind a Battle Pass is completely reversed, and heroes are made available, at launch, to every player across every platform.
