Controversial loot boxes return in Overwatch 2 soon, with ‘transparent’ odds for what you can get

Overwatch 2 is set to return to form in season 15 next week—not only with six-vs-six gameplay as an option but with the arrival of loot boxes once again.

Loot boxes were a key component in the original Overwatch as the main method of players acquiring skins in events and other cosmetics. After being replaced by a free-to-play system in OW2, they’re now back, but with different odds and multiple ways of earning them.
