The vanilla Overwatch will come to just PC for $39.99.

The Overwatch Origins Edition includes 5 skins, 21 characters and a bunch of “digital goodies” for $60. These goodies include the Tracer character for Heroes of the Storm, a special Overwatch card back for Hearthstone, Mercy’s Wings for Diablo III, a pet for WoW, and player portraits for StarCraft II.

The team noted how pleased they were with the reception that Reaper of Souls received on consoles as a factor in their decision to bring the game over.
