Here’s When The Overwatch 2 Beta Will Drop In Asia & How To Get In

Blizzard has announced the Overwatch 2 beta release times, which you can still sign up for right now on this link.

If you’re located in Southeast Asia, the Overwatch 2 beta will launch on 27 April 2am GMT+8 in Malaysia, Singapore, and The Philippines(17 hours from now). However, once launch hits, invites for the game will roll out, with more emails being sent out throughout the day. If you did not receive your invite on the day itself, Blizzard may send out further invites later during the test, which will last until 17 May (PST time). 

However, if you need a guaranteed chance to get in, you can instead watch four hours of participating Twitch channels trying out the Overwatch 2 beta and get a beta key via the Overwatch 2 PvP Beta Twitch Drops campaign.

The Twitch streamings start at 27 April 1am GMT+8 to 9am GMT+8. Here’s the full list of streamers, including notable Overwatch players Geguri and Kephri.
