Overwatch Reveals Twitch Drops For Reign of Talon Mid-Season 1 Update

Overwatch just revealed three separate Twitch Drop campaigns taking place between now and Season 2, which grant rewards including Loot Boxes, Battle Pass Tier Skips, and cosmetics. Fans who watch Overwatch streams on Twitch during these three campaigns can score these free in-game bonuses without even opening the hero shooter.

The mid-Season 1 update for Overwatch Reign of Talon officially went live on March 10, bringing with it some balance adjustments for several characters. What’s more, it also began the Overwatch x Nier: Automata collaboration, introduced the Hop Online! Mythic Mei skin, and scheduled several events, including the Underwatch April Fools’ Day game mode, Junkrat’s Loot Hunt, and the Season 1 Competitive Drives.

The first Twitch Drop, live from now through April 5, is in celebration of the Overwatch mid-Season 1 update. Players who watch any Overwatch streamers on Twitch for seven hours will claim two Common Loot Boxes, one Epic Loot Box, and the Ramistletoe Ramattra Spray.

The Ramistletoe Spray was actually originally designed with community input during a special Q&A with Overwatch game director Aaron Keller just before the holidays in 2025.

Season 2 of Overwatch’s Reign of Talon storyline begins on April 14, bringing with it a new hero, a Switch 2 port, further balance adjustments, a reworked Antarctic Peninsula map, and much more. There will almost certainly be another Twitch Drop campaign to celebrate the next update, so fans can expect the freebies to keep on coming throughout the spring.
