"Overwatch 2" previously announced the schedule for its beta openings for the public to enjoy. However, one of the only ways to join is by watching streams from approved streamers that provide passes and ways to enter this closed game beta and experience the "Overwatch 2" offers from Activision Blizzard. 

Names including PlayOverwatchAsmongoldPokimaneSypherPKxQc, and more are the streamers that Activision Blizzard partnered with, and here, users can gain access to the closed beta. However, do not expect much from these streamers as it remains a closed beta, and the passes they give may be limited to only a handful of players.

Also, it is essential to note that the beta is only available on the PC platform for now.

"Overwatch 2" is the sequel to the famous arena shooting game from Activision Blizzard, and while most PvP games get no new game releases from their developers, this one is different. The supposed closed beta for "Overwatch 2" launched last April 26, and this is what people look into when watching Twitch streams as they want to join it. 

Only a handful of people get the chance to join the game, especially with what it currently offers to the public, focusing more on the game's new content for everyone to enjoy. A preview of "Overwatch 2" appeared on the previous title's Season 5 features, focusing on what it tries to offer the public for its upcoming release. 

Now, the "Overwatch 2" teams keep the players at a minimum, hence the closed beta. The focus now is to ensure and give its selected gamers insight into how the game would look and feel once it is out for release. 

There are limited ways to join the "Overwatch 2" beta, and there is a reason for it, as per Activision Blizzard. However, that does not mean that it is entirely closed for all.
