Category[edit]

@Masem: I've just now created a category for games that include battle passes, so if you are aware of any other game that includes them (I've already added the four mentioned on the page; this seems to be something you keep track of), feel free to add them to relevant articles. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 23:10, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure Depth provided something similar to a battle pass before Fortnite ever did, it's first one being "Terror Nights" <ref>https://steamcommunity.com/games/274940/announcements/detail/754744154940552631Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name (see the help page).2001:1970:5299:8D00:319B:6E59:49E9:1FCD (talk) 22:22, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Does not seem notable. And that still isn't earlier than Dota 2's introduction of the concept in 2013. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 22:55, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Overwatch bit seems out of place[edit]

Under Concept, there is a whole paragraph talking about how Overwatch's battle pass changed in OW 2, that it now gives free heros and so on. It is not even an example, just a bit of controversy unrelated to the concept of a battle pass. The whole thing is tangent to the topic in my opinion, and shouldn't be there or anywhere on this page.
