    No Overwatch beta key after pre-purchase.


    Hi, this is Jon Waggoner. For the account [Mod Removed] I purchased the pre-order version of the game, but never received a code or any way to access the beta.

    Thanks for any help.

    Jon

    :)

    Overwatch friend early access beta key

    No one here in the forums can do that for you as it involves your account which only Xbox Support has access to. All you can hope is that someone has a spare key they can give you. You could also try posting on the Overwatch forums to see if anyone has a
    spare code there.

    As a pre-order of Overwatch to get in the Beta you simply had to go to the Overwatch Beta and "BUY" the Beta. It was a zero cost purchase for your account. I know this doesn't help you now but that is how it was/should have been done.

    No Overwatch beta key after pre-purchase.

    Just read some of the responses on Overwatch beta questions. I have searched at the store and still don't see "Overwatch Beta" in the results. I just see 3 items, the pre-order bundle, the normal version and the "skin" bonus thing.

    Please provide a different answer than what I saw on other posts (unless you triggered something and my search changes). Cheers!

    Hi there.

    First and foremost please don't put personal information in the forums. With your question, when did you purchase Overwatch? Some codes for friends are still going out in waves. Check your Xbox system messages to see if you've received it yet. If you didn't
    purchase on or before the 29th you won't have early access to the beta, and will have to wait until open beta starts in a few days.

    To find Overwatch beta go to
    https://store.xbox.com
    search for Overwatch, and Overwatch Beta should appear. This is what you would install for Early access provided you purchased on or before the 29th of April/

    Appreciate the reply and it likely does answer my question, however, there are a few issues. I paid for the "pre-order bundle" it did state that it would provide access 48 hours ahead of the normal open beta, but did not indicate that the deadline was April
    29th (I had read that elsewhere). Since that is really the only benefit of that bundle, I'd thought it would still work regardless of not purchasing until May 1st. It shouldn't really have been offered at that point if that wasn't part of what you receive.

    Figuring I'm limited to the open beta starting the 5th now. Is there a way to change my purchase to the normal addition. I'm not interested in the Widowmaker skin, and no other perks will apply to my PC Blizzard games.

    Thanks and sorry for posting personal info. The rep I chatted with indicated that you needed my email... I believe I misunderstood the direction, cheers!

    No OverWatch beta codes

    Overwatch does NOT come with 2 codes unless you buy from a retailer. I'm in the early access. If you purchased on or before the 29th your account is flagged for the download. See the link I posted with info on the beta. You only get 1 key which is your
    friend key from Xbox IF you purchased on your console or online from Xbox. If you bought it from a retailer check with them for where your codes are.

    Q. How do I get early access to the Open Beta if I previously preordered or pre-purchased at a participating retail store, but didn't get an early access key?

    A. If you previously pre-purchased or preordered Overwatch at a participating retailer, contact your store to find out how to receive your early access keys.

    Q. How will I receive my early access keys if I pre-purchased from the PlayStation or Xbox Store?

    A. If you digitally pre-purchased Overwatch from the PlayStation Store or the Xbox Store, your PSN or XBL account will be automatically flagged for early access. Your friend's early access key will be distributed to you on or before May 2.
