No?
OW2 is mostly free with the PVE portion being the only part needed to be paid for?
Cause otherwise Blizzard would be violating their own idealogy they set back when this game launched. Not needing to pay for Heroes & Maps, and Jeff even said during one of the two related panels during Blizzcon that Overwatch owners will not require to purchase Overwatch 2 in order to get said upgrades.
The only part that will require purchase is all the PVE related content they are bundling with it and the whole part about it being a sequel is their market strategy. They are calling it a sequel to get more buyers and please the share holders. My guess is 20$, as the base game is sitting at 20$ at the moment and that means with every new player getting into Overwatch they’d be paying full price for PC anyways, even though the game is 3 years old. Meaning Blizzard would be making a decent amount of $$$ from it.
Again like during Blizzcon, they’re being very vague in they’re wording. They’re calling it a sequel when it should or I hope it will be more like an expansion with optional PVE content that’s behind a pay wall.
This is how I understood after watching both panels from Blizzcon and a few Youtube video opinions. I may be wrong, I hope I’m not cause it’d be the best outcome for the game, the consumers and Blizzard.
