Overwatch 2 will be arriving in October and is expected to bring several changes to Blizzard’s hero-based shooter, such as the way that players interact with each another across different platforms.
During a reveal event, the game publisher noted several things Overwatch 2 will have for its full spectrum of consoles. Players will be able to enjoy the game on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch.
With so many options for ways to play the game at no cost, you might be wondering if your account progress in OW2 can be accessed from different platforms.

Yes, Overwatch 2 will be capable of cross-progression, as per a post by Blizzard. The post read: “Along with this shift to free-to-play, we’ll be adding cross-progression, enabling everyone to play, progress, and access their unlocked content seamlessly across all game platforms.”
Besides, the game is also ditching loot boxes to incorporate a battle pass and in-game shop model that has been popularized by other battle royale games such as Fortnite and Apex Legends.
It means that any amount of content that players will be able to unlock or buy in Overwatch 2 will be on their account regardless of the platform they might be playing on.
Since Overwatch 2 is free-to-play, it means players can easily add it to any existing console they have and switch back and forth without losing access to all the skins and sprays they use on the console they primarily play on.
