Overwatch 2 gains its first major in-game collaboration with the globally popular anime One-Punch Man. For this collaboration, Overwatch 2 will have a collection of special One-Punch Man cosmetics that will be made available via the in-game shop until April 6.
One-Punch Man tells the story of Saitama, a loveable superhero who can best any foe with a single punch, and his growing boredom from a lack of formidable challengers.
The collection marks the first major collaboration for the Overwatch universe and opens the door to other crossover concepts and possibilities in the future.
“As massive fans of anime and One-Punch Man, we’re beyond thrilled to bring this new collaboration to our players around the world,” Blizzard Entertainment President Mike Ybarra, said. “The Overwatch universe is an optimistic vision of near-future Earth, so why wouldn’t Doomfist cosplay Saitama?”
The collection of cosmetics includes four cosplay hero skins based on characters from the anime: Saitama – Doomfist, Genos – Genji, Tatsumaki – Kiriko, and the earnable Mumen Rider – Soldier 76 skin that can be obtained for free by completing in-game challenges.
Aside from the special cosmetics that will be made available in-game, Overwatch 2 also made a trailer to highlight them. Check it out in the video below:
