Overwatch 2 Season One introduced three new heroes to the roster: Kiriko, Junker Queen, and Sojourn. These heroes were unlocked just by playing Season One and leveling up the Season One Battle Pass; however, now that Season Two has launched, they are no longer unlocked that way.
Players of the first Overwatch still unlock Junker Queen & Sojourn upon logging in (until the end of Season 2), but Kiriko will now need to be unlocked. In addition, Sojourn & Junker Queen now need to be unlocked for new players. Here is how to unlock Season One Heroes in Season Two of Overwatch 2.
How to Unlock Season One Heroes in Season Two
There are two ways to unlock Kiriko, Junker Queen, and Sojourn can be unlocked in Season Two of Overwatch 2.
Each Hero is available for purchase in the in-game shop. They will be available as a purchase on their own, along with “Starter Packs” that include the Heroes and some Skins or other cosmetics. If you don’t want to dish out the cash to unlock these Heroes, they can also be unlocked by completing their Hero Challenges. Each Hero has a set of 6-7 Challenges to complete to unlock them and their Challenge Sets can only be activated one at a time, meaning you can’t work toward unlocking all of them at the same time.
