Overwatch Kodi Addon Installation Guide

Considering that Kodi – or as it was initially known XBMC for Xbox Media Center – was initially designed for the Xbox. The naming of the new add-on seems particularly relevant. Taking a cue from the massive popularity of the Xbox game, the aptly named Overwatch Kodi Addon has recently been released from Team Overwatch.

This add-on offers ten different playlists which include:

• Movies
• Kids
• TV Shows
• Documentaries
• Horror
• Classic Films, and much more.

This add-on is not an official add-on so it’s really important to have a good VPN in place before you start using it.

Why Do You Need a VPN?

VPNs are really important when it comes to Kodi. They serve two primary but different functions.

The first thing that VPNs like IPVanish do, is they protect you from monitoring. VPNs create a secure, and encrypted tunnel between your device and the VPN server that they connect to. All traffic sent over this link is completely private which is really important with the recent changes to net neutrality laws. Due to these recent changes, governments and ISPs now have even more ability to track and monitor your activities online. This has led to many ISPs throttling internet connections for customers that are streaming content. Often this means that right in the middle of the action. Your device starts to buffer which in itself is annoying. However, more seriously, monitoring of streams can also lead to legal notices and fines. Fortunately, a VPN gives you complete anonymity. And you do not have to worry about your ISP knowing what you are doing online.

Another reason to consider a VPN like IPVanish is something called geolocation or geo-restriction. You might have experienced it in the past when trying to access specific websites only to receive a message that “the stream is not available in your country” or something of that nature? This occurs when specific content is restricted to specific locations. Luckily though, a VPN can help you bypass these restrictions. With a VPN like IPVanish you simply have to connect to a VPN server in the country where the content is available. Your local IP address will be masked you’ll receive an IP address from the server. That will make the broadcaster think you’re in the country where the content is available. Pretty cool right?
