Alongside today’s launch of Overwatch Archives Storm Rising Blizzard has announced a free trial period and massive discounts for Overwatch.
From today through April 24, PC, PS4 and Xbox One players can download and play Overwatch free. Those who download the free trial will have access to all 30 of Overwatch’s heroes, all maps, modes and loot.
Xbox One players will need a current Gold subscription but PlayStation 4 players won’t need PS Plus.
While playing the free trial, any loot boxes and cosmetics earned can be kept provided the user purchases Overwatch on the same Blizzard or console account.
