Frequently Asked Questions About Overwatch VPN

Does Overwatch allow VPNs?

openclose
Yep, Overwatch is cool with you using a VPN. A lot of players use VPNs for security, to dodge DDoS attacks, or to reduce lag. However, using it to cheat, manipulate, or exploit the game in any way goes against Blizzard's End User Licence Agreement.

What is the best free VPN for Overwatch?

openclose
Well, we don’t know about free (although we do have a free plan with up to 10GB per month), but Windscribe’s pretty great for gaming. We’ve got a strict no-logs policy (which means we don’t log anything that can be tied back to your identity behind the screen), servers in 69+ countries, our pal R.O.B.E.R.T. (he blocks ads, trackers, and malicious content), and more. So, whatever it is that you’re looking for a VPN for, we’ve got you covered, boo!

What if Overwatch doesn’t work with my VPN?

openclose
If your Overwatch isn’t working with Windscribe, try these steps:
  1. Switch server locations
  2. Change your protocol
  3. Try another device or network

Does Blizzard ban VPNs?

openclose
Nope, it doesn't. If you're using a VPN for privacy reasons (like to mask your IP, protect yourself against attacks, and so on) or to improve lag, you're generally fine. However, if you're using it to cheat, manipulate, or exploit any Blizzard games – Overwatch included – it might get your account banned.

Is using a VPN for gaming legal?

openclose
In most places, using a VPN for gaming is totally legal. Most players use it for privacy, to protect themselves from online threats, or to improve lag. However, keep in mind that using a VPN to hide illegal activities doesn’t make those activities legal. So, in other words, a VPN won’t save you from going to jail if you’re caught doing something shady with it!
