Kayin Amoh Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Is there a way to download it ahead of time I'm not aware of without having a copy? Switched to Xbox from PS as my main this gen, and I don't have Overwatch on it. Guessing not, but be nice to cut out some of the downloading time.

Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I have OW1 on PS4/5 and switch so that’s ‘just’ an update file. It doesn’t seem to be on the Microsoft store yet as an available download for me though - I don’t own the first one on my Xbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moosegrinder Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I just checked updates on my Xbox dash and it was there. Anyone checked the Xbox app? Edit: even the original Overwatch isn't there any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Unless I’m mistaken we haven’t seen any Switch gameplay footage yet. The beta didn’t run on the switch so this could be interesting come 8pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I might have to leave my PC running Deathloop in the background while I'm playing it just so my graphics card has something to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 My PS5 has downloaded the PS4 version of OW2. I can’t for the life of me work out how to download the PS5 one. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wev Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 It's a bit of a confusing mess just accessing the game right now, isnt it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Not at all, it’s all very logical. If you already own the previous game you can update now, though it will be a last gen version (for PlayStation at least). Current gen should be going live for download right now (if you own the previous game) If you didn’t own the previous game then you can download it at 8pm. The switch version doesn’t have any of these cross gen issues obviously but I’m willing to bet it will have plenty of issues of its own!! 12 minutes ago, wev said: It's a bit of a confusing mess just accessing the game right now, isnt it?

Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Playstation: Downloading the update from OW1 updates the OW1 to OW2 (PS4 version) You can find the PS5 client as a separate download on the PS Store (I had to use the app and scroll down a fair bit, past a load of other games). The Series X/S version is on the Microsoft store now. This is all very simple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlospie Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I can get in a que of 400 then when I get to the front I get DC on series X. Is it even live yet 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I think I'm just going to wait on this for a night or two and go back to Splatoon. I'm anticipating issues given how convoluted it's felt up to this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Managed to get into 1 game before being booted out whilst in the practice range in the second one. Played a game of escort using Sojourn. Got battered for the first half until the two support players seemingly discovered their secondary fire and started healing people. Got 6 or 7 elims which was joint 1st on my team. We lost, obviously. From what I could tell with a brief check my accounts have merged and I was able to access skins I’d unlocked on my Switch playing on PS5. I thought anyone who already owned OW1 got a founders pack which gave instant access to Kiriko but she wasn’t unlocked for me. Maybe I have to open up the founders pack somewhere.

Strafe Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Anyone know how achievements/trophies will work with cross progression? eg: if I unlock the trophy for getting to level 25 on the battlepass does that mean I’d unlock the same criteria Xbox achievement when I put that version on?
