How to get Overwatch Credits in Overwatch 2

Get ready to earn fat stacks.

Overwatch Credits made their triumphant return in Overwatch 2 Season 3, and players are now able to save up each and every credit to purchase in-game goodies. However, you may be unfamiliar with the concept of Overwatch Credits as a whole as well as how you even earn them.

The Overwatch Credit system was in the previous iteration of Overwatch alongside the controversial loot boxes. Now that they’ve returned (without loot boxes), players will have more ways to spend their hard-earned cash in OW2. 

Gamers will be able to earn up to 1,500 credits with 500 more for premium players who trek through the battle pass. Skins will be ever-so-close to your inventory, more so than ever before, as credits will be a currency for purchasing things like Legendary skins.

How to earn OW2 credits:

If you’re looking to fill your purse with something other than Overwatch coins, credits are the currency for you. To earn these credits, you’ll have to complete weekly and daily challenges, and essentially just play the game. You’ll gather credits as you go in OW2. Aim to complete whatever challenge is on your list, and you’ll likely be rewarded credits.

Your legacy credits are the exact same as the OW2 credits, so if you’ve been mighty frugal, you’ll probably have a decent amount already.

It’s as simple as that! Prepare yourself to be overwhelmed with the copious amounts of coins and credits that’ll make your in-game OW2 wallet burst.

Just buy skins that are actually worth the price, don’t waste your credits.
