Blizzard really wants you to play Overwatch, and they are now promoting yet another free weekend for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

In case you didn’t already know this, there is a small company called Blizzard that makes cute games. Among them is a little-known title called Overwatch that wants to make it big, someday. You can help Blizzard fulfill their dream by playing Overwatch, for free, November 20-26.

Seriously now, how come there are people out there that haven’t played Overwatch until now? I’m guessing that there are still a lot of you because Blizzard has these free trial events quite often, and the main reason would be to attract new players.

It’s the full game

Even if it’s called a free trial, players will be able to access the entire roster of 29 heroes, and all of the maps. “For this free trial, we're making the ultimate team-based shooter’s entire content available including the full roster of 29 heroes—including the newly released gunslinger Ashe—and 19 maps available for play in a variety of modes, such as Quick Play, Custom Games, and the Arcade. Players will also be able to level up, earn Loot Boxes, and unlock different customization options for their heroes,” writes Blizzard.

As usual, if you decide to buy the game at one point, all of your progress going to be kept. Furthermore, some in-game rewards are going to be made available during the trial. Players need have to link their Blizzard and Twitch accounts and watch two hours o Overwatch streams starting November 20 through November 26.

Of course, PlayStation 4 players will be required a PlayStation Plus membership and Xbox One owners with an Xbox Live Gold membership.

The exact time for the start of the promotion is at on November 20, at 20:00 CET, and ends on November 27, at 08:59 CET. You can check the exact deployment schedule over at Blizzard.
