So how do I get to play as Octane?

My question is Is Octane obtainable outside of the battlepass or can you only unlock him by reaching rank 48 in the battle pass as pictured here, or is that just a skin for octane?

If Octane is the level 48 reward then it is better to hold off on buying the battle pass until you first reach level 23, then buy the 2800 bundle and jump up to level 48. Seeing as how it should be easier to go from 0 to 23 than it would be to go from 25 to 48.

  • Good question. Is Octane hidden behind the additional pay wall to try and force new/novice players to pay money for him?

    Isn't that just a skin for octane?

    Yes
    Here is his default skin

  • Assumptions are usually based on common sense. Common sense and EA are not synonymous. I hope your right. But I’m speculative.

    also, that is an ugly skin for octane if that’s just a skin. Base skin is way cooler imo.

    They have said that no legend will be locked behind a pay wall. 

    That doesn't mean that the grind to get them isn't a substantial one. 

  • A community manager, I forget the name, has said on Twitter that Octane will be attainable the same as Caustic and Mirage were
