Overwatch 2's debut on consoles and PC was difficult for gamers. The game suffered from many server problems with endless queues that often ended in a network error when we saw the end of it. Fortunately, things have finally stabilized! Well aware that the launch of Overwatch 2 is far from optimal, the Blizzard teams have decided to make some gifts to the players (rightly upset) to be forgiven for these small inconveniences. In these gifts, there is a very nice legendary skin to collect for the Reaper character.
Obviously, if you don't play with the Reaper hero from Overwatch 2, the legendary skin offered is less interesting. For everyone to be satisfied, the developers will organize several weekends with double XP matches which will make up for the lost time and therefore catch up with the delays accumulated for the progression of the battle pass. We invite you to discover when all this will be implemented on Overwatch 2.
How to get the Reaper legendary "Cursed Captain" skin in Overwatch 2:
First of all, please note that the exact dates for the double XP weekends are still to be determined. On the other hand, you will be able to recover the legendary skin of the "Cursed Captain" for the "Reaper" as well as a pendant / weapon charm "health pack" from October 25, 2022, until the end of the season 1 which ends on December 5, 2022. Simply log into the game during these times to automatically unlock the two cosmetic items which will be tied to your BattleNet account. The legendary Reaper skin will be selectable from the hero sheet, while the weapon charm can be equipped with all Overwatch 2 characters.
New content should soon arrive in the game, most certainly with a Halloween event at the end of the month which will allow players to validate temporary challenges and discover new skins (in the shop?) for the different heroes.
