Overwatch 2 has launched a new Discord Quest in celebration of Season 16, offering an effortless way for players to earn five free Loot Boxes. By simply dedicating 15 minutes of gameplay from now until April 29, participants can easily acquire these in-game rewards.
This season’s arrival has injected vibrant content into Overwatch 2, introducing the new Stadium game mode, a dynamic damage hero named Freja, and Hero Bans within Competitive Play. Furthermore, a fresh Battle Pass awaits players, along with a variety of new skins, notably the whimsical Dokiwatch magical girl cosmetics linked to the Mythic Heart of Hope Juno.
To commemorate this update, Overwatch 2 provides fans with an opportunity to gain free loot with minimal commitment. Players can earn five Loot Boxes through the Discord Quest now available until April 29. The process is straightforward: players need to accept the Quest via the Discover tab in Discord, log into Overwatch 2, and play for 15 minutes. Note that this gameplay can take place outside of active matches—players can simply leave the game idle on the menu or Hero Gallery to make progress. After completing this duration, players should return to Discord to claim their rewards code and redeem it in the Battle.net launcher for the Loot Boxes.

Access the Discover icon located at the bottom of the Discord server list, followed by selecting the Quests button from the options.

- Quests can be completed on both PC and console, by linking Discord to PlayStation or Xbox (note that Switch compatibility is currently not supported).

Additionally, players have a limited window to finalize the previous Overwatch 2 Discord quest. By watching a brief, one-minute trailer showcasing the Overwatch 2 Mid-Season 15 update before April 24, fans can secure the Frozen Seer Lifeweaver skin at no cost.
As if that wasn’t enough, there’s also the opportunity to earn the Ice Princess Symmetra Legendary skin via Twitch Drops by watching any streamer for nine hours until May 7. With this, alongside the anticipated Gundam Wing x Overwatch 2 collaboration and various rewards from the ongoing Stadium: Initiation event, players will have ample opportunities to grab free in-game items this Season 16.
