What Are Competitive Drives?

Competitive Drives are a new feature in Overwatch that will be introduced in the upcoming seasons, allowing players to engage in a structured competitive environment. Each Drive will span three seasons, providing players with opportunities to unlock new prestige tiers for their Signatures.

Unlocking Prestige Tiers

Players will have the chance to earn a new prestige tier for their Signatures with each Drive they complete. The highest tier, known as the Elite Signature card, will be reserved for the most dedicated players, regardless of their overall rank. This tier system encourages players to actively participate in the competitive scene.

Seasonal Reset and Rewards

At the beginning of each new Competitive Drives period, all players' Signatures will reset, allowing everyone to start fresh and earn new rewards. This system ensures that players remain engaged and motivated to improve their skills and compete for higher prestige.

Get Ready for the First Drive

The first Competitive Drive kicks off this Friday, October 6, 2024. Players are encouraged to log on and participate in the competitive ranks. Additionally, players can earn Battle Pass Tier Skips by watching Overwatch 2 content creators on Twitch during the event, further incentivizing community engagement.
