How to Get Overwatch 2 Season 6 Mid-Season Twitch Drops?

To receive the cosmetic items all that you need to do is launch any Overwatch 2 drops-enabled livestream on Twitch that are categorized under 'Overwatch 2'.

This should not be too difficult with many streamers available to watch on the platform playing Overwatch 2, just make sure that your Battle.net account is connected to your Twitch account.

Now, you simply need to reach the target viewership goals and claim the respective rewards. However, do keep in mind that until and unless you do not claim your rewards from the drops inventory on Twitch in a timely manner, further progress will be halted.

What this means is that after two hours of viewership, you will be ready to claim the first reward which is 'Do You Lift Bap Spray', but as long as you do not claim it from the drops inventory, further progress towards the second reward 'Baptiste Blue Steel Skin' will not take place.


How to Link Twitch and Battle.net Accounts?

Before you start watching an Overwatch 2 stream on Twitch, make sure that your Battle.net account, the one in which you want to receive the free rewards, is linked to the streaming platform.

  1. Log in to your Battle.net account.

  2. Navigate to your Battle.net Connections page.

  3. A long list of third-party websites will appear, scroll to the bottom where Twitch is located and click on 'Connect'.

  4. A new page will open prompting you to log into your Twitch account, click on 'Continue'.

  5. After you log in an authorization from Twitch will pop up, click on 'Authorize'.

  6. A confirmation has to be provided to Battle.net after it retrieves your Twitch account details, click on 'Continue'.

  7. A final message will appear on the screen stating that your Battle.net account has been successfully connected to your Twitch account.

Note: Make sure you are connecting Battle.net to the correct Twitch account because there is a seven-day cooldown period that prevents a user from connecting to a new one.

Overwatch 2 Linking Battle.net With Twitch

Now you are all set to start receiving the Twitch Drop rewards directly in Overwatch 2 without any hassle.

So fire up the systems and launch any Overwatch 2 livestream on your second monitor or simply let it run in the background because all that is left to do is farm those viewership hours.
