This affects a tremendous amount of people, esp. Phone numbers are required but pre-paid phone plans are NOT compatible.
However, Overwatch 2 players that want to play without a account and those who are creating a brand new account to use with the game will still need to use a phone as a form of 2FA. From this Friday, October 7th, those with a connected account won’t have to provide a phone number to play Overwatch 2. Younger players who don’t have a smartphone at all are also obviously screwed.Īfter mass outrage on social media, Blizzard has decided to remove the smartphone number requirement for some accounts. While most adult players have a smartphone, the system used by Overwatch 2 doesn’t accept numbers belonging to prepaid phones. One issue that has left many Overwatch 2 players fuming is the new smartphone number requirement that’s now needed to activate accounts before they can play. You'll be put into the same pool as people watching the Overwatch League.The Overwatch 2 video game launched on Windows PC and Microsoft’s Xbox consoles this week and, while the launch was highly-anticipated by players, it’s been plagued with server outages and a host of other problems that have left new and long-time players upset. You can also email Blizzard to enter yourself for beta access. The pros have had access to an earlier build of Overwatch 2, so it's also a great opportunity to see the early high-level strategies for the game.
Note that beta access is not guaranteed: Blizzard is giving away 1,500 beta tokens every hour, and you have to watch on a computer, on the YouTube mobile app or on YouTube's mobile website. Overwatch League (more commonly called OWL) matches stream on YouTube, and you'll need to link your Blizzard account to your YouTube account to be eligible. For the opening weekend of the Overwatch League, Blizzard is giving away beta tokens for people who watch at least an hour of select games: If you weren't selected, don't panic - you still have other chances to get into the Overwatch 2.
