Students must already have a copy of Overwatch 2 and have a Battle.net account made.  (When you install Overwatch for the first time and boot it up, the game will walk you through this process. Without completing the in-game steps, your learner will not be able to play.)

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Battle.net Account
Overwatch 2

Shooting/Violence: Overwatch 2 is a first-person shooting game. There may be some blood when a character is hit but it does not stain the ground and there is no gore. 

In-game character death: Student's in-game characters will die when killed by other players. Some learners might find this very upsetting. 

Internet Safety: Overwatch 2 is a game in which people can send you friend requests during or after matches. I require students to not accept or send friend requests to other classmates or random people we play against on the Internet. If a learner would like to friend request a student in class, the parents of both learners can message each other and agree to it. I cannot monitor student interactions outside of the Outschool classroom. 

Chat Safety: Students must deactivate their in-game voice chat and text chat while we play against other teams online. Sometimes there are random players who may say or write unkind things using the in-game voice or chat and by deactivating these features, we can avoid that. 

Battle.net account- Overwatch 2 requires players to create a Battle.net account in order to play
