With just under a week till Christmas, some games are already hitting the sales. One of the games that have hit the sale is the beloved Overwatch.
The Overwatch Game of the Year Edition has 40% off and there is an extra 10% off for PlayStation Plus members. For those that do not have a PS Plus, the price has gone down to $35.99/£24.99. The original price is $59.99/£49.99. On the Blizzard website, it hints that there are only thirteen days left of this sale which means that this sale ends on January 2, 2018.
More than 30 million players play Overwatch and 7 million of them started playing the game in the first week of launch. Blizzard launched Overwatch on PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One on May 23, 2017. It was no surprise to some players that this game was the winner of over 100 Game of the Year awards.
Fans that buy this game now will be just in time for the Winter Wonderland season which is until January 1, 2017. This event includes brawls and new items. On the website it says a bit more about the event.
“This year, we’re celebrating with a new brawl: Yeti Hunter, as well as bringing back Mei’s Snowball Offensive. We’ve decked the halls of Black Forest, King’s Row, and Hanamura. But we know what you really want: presents! Unlock over 50 new seasonal items—including legendary skins like Snow Owl Ana, Rime Sombra, Beachrat Junkrat, and Ice Fisherman Roadhog—alongside winter gear from last year at reduced credit costs.”
Overwatch has also entered e-sports with Overwatch League and Overwatch World Cup. The Overwatch League started its preseason matches two weeks ago on December 6, 2017, but the official season does not start until January 10.
