Season 2 of Overwatch 2 is fast approaching, and a new wave of content alongside a new version of the Battle Pass system will accompany its launch. So when does Season 1 end?
Blizzard has already begun announcing the features of Season 2, including a new map and the new tank hero Ramattra. A timeline of new trailers and updates was posted by Blizzard on Nov. 22, providing ample time for announcements to count down to the season’s launch date. Notably, a content roadmap will be revealed on Nov. 29, likely to show Ramattra’s abilities in action, plus gameplay updates.
In addition to new content, Season 2 will also implement hero balance changes to ensure a similar level of fairness that Season 1 successfully implemented.

The Overwatch 2 game client notes that Season 1’s end date will coincide with Season 2’s Dec. 6 launch. The Season 1 Battle Pass will also expire on this date, as Season 2’s Battle Pass will include 80 tiers of new rewards and cosmetics.
The Battle Pass System, which will still be required to play, will maintain its free and premium tiers. Much like Season 1, those who opt to use the free Battle Pass will need to unlock Ramattra after reaching a certain tier, while premium users will unlock him right away.
