Concurrent downloads

With the Overwatch 2 update about to download, and rumors of it being ~50 gigs, I was just wondering…

Is there a most-efficient way to download it into one household when you have several PCs that all need it? Is there any sharing of downloads your local computers do with each other … ie, like torrent? Does the battle.net app handle this automatically? If so, would it be best to fully update one PC and then start all the others, or best to have them updating all at the same time?

The most efficient way is to download onto one PC. Then copy the Overwatch 2 Directory onto an external drive. Then copy that into the same file location on each PC.

That will save you time and bandwidth.

Otherwise, depending on your setup, having them all download at once may cause lower speeds on your service.
