In a recent interview, Joe Piepiora, associate game director revealed that the gamers have to spend around 80 hours to complete the seasonal battle pass. He also suggested that to reach 100 character level players have to grind more.

Piepiora stated, “Right now, the battle pass, when you’re figuring in completing the season journey alongside doing other content in the game, you’re looking at roughly 80 hours worth of time invested to complete the entire of the battle pass.”

“To level a character to level 100 could take a little longer than that based on how you play,” He added.

The discussion with Piepiora laments how the battle pass will work. He mentioned that every season player will start with a new seasonal level 1 character and players have to make their way to 100lvl by completing season-specific objectives.
