In total, there are eight pages of Overwatch Season 1 Battle Pass items to unlock. After that, the prestige tiers go up to 200. This season's tier 200 player title is "Empire's Favored." You can level up the Battle Pass to reach higher and higher tiers by completing matches for Battle Pass XP. Event challenges grant some extra Battle Pass XP as well.
