Overwatch 2 will be free-to-play when it launches in October but according to a recent survey that has reportedly rolled out to users, the game could feature in-game cosmetics with hefty price tags as high as $45.We don’t know about you, but we question ourselves when we buy a t-shirt that costs more than $40, so hearing that a game could be offering skins for more is rather surprising. As spotted by Twitter user @Portergauge (thanks, PCGamesN), an Overwatch 2 survey that was apparently sent to users recently looks to be testing the water for in-game item pricing, which includes Mythic quality skins rocking price tags of $44.99.Blizzard is reportedly eyeing up expensive in-game skinsWhile the prices are certainly shocking, it’s worth mentioning now that it’s only an early survey to gauge player price limits, so these particularly expensive prices won’t necessarily make it into the full release, or Early Access as it will be on October 4th. According to the screenshots provided by @Portergauge, the survey prices Mythic skins at $44.99, followed by Legendary bundles for $29.99, single Legendary skins for $24.99, and weapon charms priced at $9.99.As you can imagine, the survey has rubbed some players the wrong way, with the post’s Twitter and Reddit comments sections highlighting many unhappy players. The news stings a little bit more since Overwatch 2 won’t be featuring loot boxes, so you’ll potentially have to spend your own money if you want your characters to look different from the generic version. We’d love to know what you think about this news. Would you be happy to pay these prices for cosmetics? Let us know down in the comments below!
