So this Pachimari 3D keychain is an official product sold by Blizzard (via Blizzard Gear). The keychain costs $5.00, while the in-game charm costs 700 Overwatch Coins (the equivalent of $7.00). This doesn’t factor in the cost of tax and shipping on the keychain, but spending $2.00 more on digital cosmetics versus something you could physically own and attach to your own bag or keyring is … odd.
Like the keychain, Overwatch coins have to be purchased in preset amounts (via Battle.net) of $5, $10, $15, $20, or $100. So if you do want to buy the Pachimari in-game charm, and you don’t already have a coin balance, you’ll have to shell out a minimum of $10. Then you’ll be left with 300 coins to either let sit on your account balance or try and find something else to spend it on.
Some “Overwatch 2” players are also concerned that this revelation could lead to Blizzard adjusting their prices, but not in the way you might think. Reddit user sudden-SOUND points out that the 10.5-inch Tracer statue jumped from $150 (via GameSkinny), and is now sitting at $190 (via Blizzard Gear). So the concern is that the price of the keychain will go up, not that the in-game charm price will go down.
