'''Credits''' are a form of currency in ''[[Overwatch]]'' and ''[[Overwatch 2]]''. 

==Overwatch 2==
Nearly all [[cosmetics]] prior to ''Overwatch 2'' are always available for purchase in the [[Cosmetics#Heroes|hero gallery]] with either {{Coins}} [[Overwatch Coins]] or {{Credits}} '''Credits'''. This includes cosmetics from seasonal event modes, which cost slightly more.<ref name = "Season2Retrospective">2023-01-31, [https://overwatch.blizzard.com/en-us/news/23910163/ SEASON 2 RETROSPECTIVE: A LOOK BACK AND THE ROAD FORWARD]. ''PlayOverwatch'', accessed on 2023-02-02</ref> However, exclusive skins and cosmetics from ''[[Overwatch]]'' remain unobtainable in ''[[Overwatch 2]]'', such as all the [[Competitive Play|competitive]] sprays, [[:File:Mercy Skin Pink.png|Pink]] [[Mercy]] charity skin, and many other cosmetics.

{{Credits}} Credits were dubbed ''"Legacy Credits"'' in ''[[Overwatch 2]]'' and were carried over between games. In [[Season#Season 3|season 3]], credits were reintroduced; players could earn Credits through the free and premium tracks of the [[Battle Pass]], and additional credits through [[Limited-time event|event]] [[Challenges]].

Most recently, in [[Season#Season 10|season 10]], players could earn up to {{Credits}} 1500 through the free [[Battle Pass]] track, and an additional {{Credits}} 500 in the premium [[Battle Pass]] track. They can also earn up to {{Credits}} 150 weekly through completing the '''Making Progress''' [[Challenges#Weekly challenges|weekly challenge]].

==Overwatch 1==

In ''Overwatch'', credits could be used to buy [[skins]], [[sprays]], [[voice lines]], [[emotes]], [[victory poses]] and [[highlight intros]]. They could be found in [[Loot Boxes]] either directly, as an amount of money, or indirectly, as a compensation for duplicate drops. During [[Seasonal events|Seasonal Events]], new [[cosmetics]] cost ×3 the usual number of credits that an item of that rarity would normally cost, while returning items will have the same cost as standard items of the same rarity.
