Can you Fix Overwatch 2 Battle Pass Not Working? – Answered

UPDATE 10/6/22: Blizzard has confirmed that no player items have been lost. “You have not lost any items or progress, though some players are logging in and seeing some/all elements missing from their collection.”

Currently, the servers are undergoing significant strain, resulting in players not having their battle pass progression work properly. In fact, if you purchased the Watchpoint Pack, you’re supposed to have been given the battle pass for Season 1. Many players are reporting that they don’t have access to the premium battle pass and can not seem to gain access.

This is a bug on Blizzard’s end, and there is no current fix for it. This is likely due to the two major DDOS attacks on the servers combined with the massive influx of new players.
