Those who want to secure the rewards of Season 8 of Overwatch need to step up. Season 8 ends tomorrow.
Once again, the current season in Overwatch is coming to an end. Tomorrow, on February 25, 2018, the 8th ranked season of Overwatch will end.
As usual, rewards await at the end of the season, which will be granted to all players who have completed at least their 10 placement matches and thereby received a skill rating (SR). Depending on the achieved skill rating, there is a different number of Competitive Points (CP).
- Bronze: 65 CP
- Silver: 125 CP
- Gold: 250 CP
- Platinum: 500 CP
- Diamond: 750 CP
- Master: 1,200 CP
- Grandmaster: 1,750 CP
The received CP depend on the highest rank achieved in the season. For example, if someone was temporarily “Gold” and later dropped to “Silver”, they will still receive the 250 CP for their Gold placement.
The Competitive Points can be used to unlock golden weapons. The golden weapons do not provide any gameplay advantage, they are simply cosmetic enhancements for each respective hero. Each of these weapons costs 3,000 CP, so it takes a while to unlock one or even multiple weapons.
Overwatch Season 9 is already on the horizon
However, there is not a long break until the start of the next season. Just 3 days later, on February 28, 2018, the 9th ranked season of Overwatch will begin. Then, another 10 placement matches must be completed and the fun starts all over again.
The 9th ranked season of Overwatch will also last about 2 months before Competitive Points and other rewards, such as spray logos and profile pictures, are awarded to the players.
