Free Weekend
Lapsed WoW players can return to Azeroth for free starting this Thursday
Sometimes, we think we're out, and then they pull us back in.
Don’t forget! You can play Overwatch for free this weekend
Update: This is now live, so get in game!
Overwatch free to play this weekend
If you're one of the rare few who don't already own Overwatch, you're in luck. Starting November 17 through November 20, you can dip your toes into Overwatch and play for free. And when Blizzard Entertainment says free, they mean free. This isn't a feature-limited demo, but all the game has to offer: all 26 heroes, all 16 maps, the majority of its game modes, and unlimited progression within the free period. The only game mode that appears to be off-limits is competitive ranked, or at least, it isn't listed as one of the game modes available during this period.
Should Blizzard do more free weekends?
At present, World of Warcraft requires you to buy the game (usually in a deal where you get most of the expansions) as well as the most current expansion in order to play the most up to date content.
Overwatch free to play next weekend
If Sombra (or maybe just her new skins) has you interested in Overwatch for the first time, next weekend you can give the game a test run.
