I am a Xbox user and im starting to play the PC edition of Overwatch and I noticed you can connect your PC Xbox and PS4 account to your Blizzard games account but this feature does not allow you to have the same account that you connected your specific platform to a different one your transferring too. I know you would have to add cross platform games (such as PC players vs Xbox players) but maybe that could be optional. And a player switching to a different platform such as me would not want to start from scratch especially when it comes to competitive seasons.
I really wish it let you keep skins across the different platform accounts.

Ditto on that one I need to keep everything in my Overwatch account to live
In most cases, there is only one or two skins I care about and I aquire those very quickly. 8 accounts here, if I can do it so can you, as long as you aren’t one of those OCD completionists.

I am level 450 on PSN, and got a PC in January. I just want my skins back, or hell, even the choice to select 5 of my favorite skins to bring over. I have to wait months just for an opportunity to earn event skins from previous years (and with such a low currency count, that probably won’t happen).
Just weird I can link accounts but it seemingly does nothing. If Heroes of the Storm can link to PSN (those D.Va and Genji skins), then we know account skins are easy to carry over cross platform.

You guys just have to remember that Blizzard would have to buy your data off of the PSN/Xbox servers.

Cross platform play would be hell given the limitations of controller vs k+m
Cross platform skins aren’t happening because $$$
Poor little indie company Blizzard can’t but the Paladins and Fortnite Devs can? Not buying it. (And neither is blizzard, ho!)

Then again Fortnite got extremely popular this year and probably making more money than Blizzard but who knows
Between the OWL and event lootboxes? They’re doing well but I doubt they have more money than the biggest pc gaming company in the world
I was a level 30 on Xbox One and switched over to pc, only thing I miss is Mercy’s Zhuque skin. I had gotten all my skins back and more, except for zhuque.
well remember ive been playing comp since like season 4 and I don’t want to lose all that stuff I earned
