Where are my Legacy Coins in Overwatch 2?
Your Legacy Coins in Overwatch 2 can be found in the upper right corner of the game, and if you don’t see them, try logging out of the game and the Battle.net Desktop App and then logging back in to resolve any potential display issues. The Legacy Credits are essentially the coins that you didn’t spend during the Overwatch 1 cycle, and they have been carried over into Overwatch 2, but they won’t have the same value as regular Overwatch Coins.
Understanding Legacy Coins and Credits
To understand where your Legacy Coins are and how to use them, it’s essential to know the difference between Legacy Credits and Overwatch Coins. Legacy Credits are the currency you had in Overwatch 1, which can be used to purchase legacy skins and other cosmetic items from the original game. On the other hand, Overwatch Coins are the new currency in Overwatch 2, used to buy new skins and cosmetic items.
