Overwatch 2 players are not satisfied with the Season 8 Battle Pass, as they feel it’s the “worst looking” one the devs have released to date.

Overwatch 2 players have been gifted the Season 8 update, which brings exciting new content such as the brand-new Tank Mauga, Weapons Skins, and a fresh 80-tier Battle Pass.

Speaking of the Battle Pass, despite bringing a new set of Call of the Hunt skins and cosmetics, players are seemingly disappointed with the season’s rewards.

Over on the OW subreddit, players are letting their thoughts and feelings be known when it comes to the quality of the Season 8 Battle Pass, as one user even went as far as to call it the “laziest/worst looking battle pass [Blizzard Entertainment] have ever brought out.”

Others in the comments seemed to agree, as one said, “It’s just so underwhelming. And I don’t get why they keep giving the same characters skins. Another JQ and Ana skin? I will literally never use those because I like their mythics too much.”

Another user plainly said, “There’s legit not one thing in BP that I want.” An entirely different Reddit post shared similar opinions too, as user ‘Cole_Evyx’ put a post up that said: “First Battle Pass I’m not buying,” showing just how they feel about Overwatch 2 Season 8’s BP content.

They went a step further, asking Blizzard if it’s “the best [they] can do.” The OP described the rewards as “dogcrap,” as they explained that, “The final skin is garbage and looks like a normal skin, the mauga skin is mid at best.”

Another fan angrily asked, “WHO APPROVED THIS?” Others also felt the same, as in the comments one player said, “I completely agree, there is absolutely nothing I like about this BP.”

As we get closer to Christmas and the Winter Wonderland and Lunar New Year events, perhaps more skins that the community will like will arrive in-game.
