Change names in Overwatch - so go ahead

You can change your name relatively easily in all Blizzard games, your so-called battle tag. Since the introduction of Overwatch, everyone is allowed to reassign their day once:

1. To do this, log into your Blizzard account.
2. On the left side you will find your battle tag. Click the "Change" button to the right of it.
3. Then the window from the screenshot opens and you can enter your new day. Then confirm with "Change Battle Tag".
4. After that, you can no longer change your day for free. Should it be absolutely necessary, you can purchase a name change in the Blizzard shop for € 10.
