Once the drop is rewarded, players can log into their Battle.net account, click the Overwatch icon located at the top of the launcher homepage, then go to the Game Edition menu in the bottom left and select “Overwatch 2.
Blizzard said, “Don't worry if you can't get into the PvP Beta at launch or via the drop program. You didn't miss all your chances to get into the action. There will be Overwatch 2 beta releases and content for everyone to watch.” said
The first Overwatch 2 closed beta will run from April 26 to May 17, but more betas are planned for the future.
