Blizzard is famous for giving away free cosmetics to its community every now and then. Most of these free cosmetic items come from the Twitch Prime subscriptions. But don’t worry, even if you’re not a Prime member, you can still earn some free cosmetic Items in Overwatch by just watching Overwatch Twitch live streams.
Free Cosmetic Items In Overwatch
If you don’t know, Overwatch League 2019 grand finals are just around the corner kicking off on Sept. 29 at 2 pm CT. Now, let’s get to the point. In order to earn free cosmetic items, you need to watch at least one hour of Overwatch League streams on Twitch, Overwatch League app, or website.
Fans who watch at least one hour of the Overwatch League season two grand finals stream will be rewarded with Wrecking Ball Watch Party spray. Viewers who watch two hours of the stream will receive a Grand Finals Trophy icon. And for those who watch the complete three-hour stream will be given spray named Payload Watch Party. But if you’re watching on Twitch, you need to have your Battle.net account linked to your Twitch account.
How to Link Twitch and Battle.net Accounts
In order to receive cool rewards from Blizzard, you need to link your Battle.net account to your valid Twitch account. Before linking, make sure your account and account information is correct.
- Log in to your Twitch Account
- Go to your Account Settings
- Click on the Connections tab located on the right of the settings options.
- Click on the Connect Button beside the Battle.net option (this will prompt you to enter your Battle.net account info and login)
- Once logged in, your accounts will be linked.
Once your accounts are linked, you’ll see a green text appear underneath the stream saying “users that drops are enabled.” Recently, Overwatch community has been asking for the Map Vote system in the game. Here’s how it could look like if added in Overwatch.
Overwatch was released on May 24, 2016, for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
