The Overwatch Double XP Weekend means double the experience for doing just about everything in the game possible. We’ve got the full details on what that entails entirely, when the weekend officially starts, and when it will come to an unfortunate end. Let’s get started with the full details!
Overwatch Double XP Weekend Explained
