As it turns out, the rumors about Overwatch being a buy to play game is true, so be prepared to dish out some cash. Three different editions were announced: a base version, the Overwatch Origins Edition and the ultra-cool “You know you really want this.” Collectors’ Edition.
The base version will only be available on PC and will come with all 21 currently available heroes and all maps.
The Overwatch Origins Edition will include everything in the base edition as well as five unique “origin” skins for five Overwatch heroes as well as special content related to each of Blizzard’s other games.

Overgrown Bastion Blackwatch Reyes Slipstreme Tracer Strike-Commander Morrison Security Chief Pharah
Digital Goodies:
Heroes of the Storm - Tracer Hero World of Warcraft - Baby Winston Pet (TOO FREAKING CUTE) Hearthstone - Overwatch Card Back Diablo III - Mercy’s Wings Starcraft II - Player Portraits
Finally, there’s the Collectors’ Edition which contains everything in the Origins Edition and some sweet physical goodies: a bronze Soldier 76 statue, a source book, and the soundtrack.
The Base Edition will run you $39.99, while the Origins Edition will cost $59.99. Both are available as digital versions. The Collector’s Edition is only available as a physical set and is listed for $129.99 at GameStop.
