    Nice, found the exact part you're talking about. I doubt it could be a translation error since it explicitly says "contre de l'argent OU de l'Acier".

    It still is possible that they got the wrong information though (has happened before with other news outlets).

    So yeah, it'd be neat to get some confirmation on this.

    Hi there Allen!

    You are not able to purchase any passes with Steel. You're able to buy individual heroes with Steel, but any passes will need to be purchased with actual currency.

    You properly read it wrong.

    The pass won’t be buyable with steel but everything they unlock can be bought with steel too.

    He didn't read it wrong. It says "...mais ceux qui auront acheté la version premium contre de l'argent ou de l'Acier auront droit à des éléments exclusifs."
    It translates to: "...but those who will have bought the premium version for either money or steel will have the right to exclusive elements."

    As long as the article keeps saying that, it's false advertising. They should be notified that you won't be able to buy the pass for steel.

    Also where does it say you can unlock the stuff from the pass with steel?

    It kinda doesnt make sense in my opinion, atleast because I view it in the same way as the season pass.

    Also they mentioned that the pass will be a addition to getting content.

    They both mention that in the dev stream and on there reddit post.

    So you're referring to this: "It was also important for us to make the Premium pass an addition to, and not a substitute for, the existing means of getting content in the game. Thus, we will be keeping original options for players with new content of the week, sales, and scavenger crates /drops at the end of the matches to get customizations items."?

    That can mean a lot of things. The way I interpreted it was that the introduction of the battle pass and its rewards won't replace the output of new content "of the week" and other things. It's an addition.

    It'd be cool to buy the stuff with steel, but what would be the point of a premium pass if you could buy its content with steel? That doesn't make sense to me.

    It would've made sense if you could buy the pass with steel because that way you could get a discount on all the items. However now you're basically paying actual money to grind things you could've bought with an earnable ingame currency rather than with actual money, through grinding (or paying money for steel)...
    That doesn't make sense to me from a business standpoint. You'd be ripping people off (Unless the items are EXTREMELY overpriced).

    The heroes definitely will be buyable with steel, but I feel like the premium pass and its content are exclusive to those who bought it with actual money.
