Overwatch 2 Loot Box Drop Rates Explained

The highly anticipated Overwatch 2 Season 15 is here, and it has reintroduced loot boxes to the hero shooter nearly three years after it was initially removed with the launch of the sequel in 2022.

With loot boxes finally making their return to Overwatch 2 after such a long time, you might be tempted to take a shot at the exquisite cosmetics that they have to offer. However, before you go on an unboxing spree trying to get your favorite Legendary skin, it’s best to make yourself acquainted with the new loot box odds.

In this article, we’ll take a detailed look at the new Overwatch 2 loot box system and calculate the odds of obtaining each rarity of skins when unboxing these cases.

Below, we have listed the drop rates for the new loot boxes in Overwatch 2:

Normal

  • Legendary: 5.10%
  • Epic: 21.93%
  • Rare: 96.26%
  • Common: 97.97%

Legendary

  • Legendary: 100%

  • Rare: 96.26%
  • Common: 97.97%

Taking a look at the odds, we can see that every Legendary loot box is guaranteed to give you a Legendary cosmetic alongside additional rewards.

Additionally, every loot box you open will include at least one Rare item, with an Epic skin appearing in every five boxes and a Legendary skin in every 20 boxes. Duplicate rewards are eliminated — if you roll a cosmetic you already own, it will automatically be rerolled for a different item.

This concludes everything you need to know about the new Overwatch 2 loot box odds.
