Link your Battle.net account and Twitch account to receive beta drops. To use the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta Drop, you must have an Overwatch license associated with your account. Players who do not yet own Overwatch will still be able to access the build with the free trial available to participants during the PvP Beta. While you don’t need to install Overwatch, doing so can greatly reduce the download and installation time of the beta build.
Claiming a Twitch drop will grant you access to the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta and will need to upload the version of the game to the Battle.net client. Here are the download instructions for those with access:
Sign in using the Battle.net account you linked to Twitch Drops.
Click the Overwatch icon at the top of the app home page.
Go to the Game Edition dropdown at the bottom left of the Overwatch page.
Select Overwatch 2 Technical Beta, continue installing and hit the blue Play button to get started.
If you can’t get into the PvP Beta at startup or with the Twitch Drop program, don’t worry!
There is still a chance to act! Broadcasts and content from the Overwatch 2 beta will be publicly available, and we’ll be sharing more information on how to access future betas soon!
