What’s New in Overwatch’s Summer Games 2017? Everything You Need to Know

overwatch loot box duplicates change

A few months ago some loot box changes were implemented that drastically reduced the duplicate item rate drop, and Summer Games 2017 is the first event that will take advantage of this improved system.

The last few seasonal events including Anniversary and Uprising received complaints from players, especially those who spent real money on loot boxes, who were receiving high amounts of duplicate items than seemed fair. Personally, as an active Overwatch player who logs on at least every second day, since the system changes last month I have not had a SINGLE duplicate item, so I’m excited to see these changes come over to the more exciting seasonal loot boxes and their items.
