Fortnite has paved a path showing the potential strength of crossover events, skins, and cosmetics, and Overwatch 2 is one of the games that has done the best job of joining in on the fun with its popular skin collabs. While developer Blizzard’s hero shooter was a bit late to the party, it’s now full of hype skins inspired by popular anime series, renowned K-pop groups, and more.
It’s been two years since Overwatch 2 introduced its first crossover skins with the release of One-Punch Man cosmetics. Here are the best Overwatch 2 skin collabs so far.
In the fall of 2024, the expansive fantasy lore of World of Warcraft arrived in Overwatch 2, bringing the greatest heroes of Azeroth — and its most diabolical villains — to Future Earth. The clash of Blizzard’s two popular titles came with new emotes, Play of the Game cinematics, sprays, skins, and more.
The skins, inspired by popular WoW characters, included:
The detailed and dynamic skins made this skin crossover event hugely popular. Blizzard truly found a way to combine the styles from Overwatch and World of Warcraft to make intricate skins that each told a story and showed a lot of character personality. Widowmaker’s Sylvanas skin was especially iconic, combining her sultry style with the boldness of a faraway fantasy world.
This summer 2024 collaboration came as a bit of a surprise, but it made sense all the same. Bringing the 80s nostalgia of Transformers’ most iconic characters, and the modern renditions in the new cinematic Transformers universe, to Future Earth to help fight all of the various uprisings made for a very exciting event, with plenty of cosmetic rewards to go around.
The skins included:
These transformative skins truly brought the robotic stylings of the famed robots in disguise to Overwatch 2. A favorite was Bastion’s Bumblebee skin, which worked perfectly. When Bastion transformed into his turret form, he appeared as an adorable yellow car. Though it might not have been quite so cute for the enemies he would mow down.
There have now been two Le Sserafim crossover events in Overwatch 2, giving the female heroes in the game a new look inspired by K-pop idols. The streetwear outfits, including baggy pants, cropped shirts, and oversized sneakers, gave the heroes some much-needed modern swag and really showed off their attitudes.
These are all of the skins from the latest crossover, which was released in 2025:
A lot of players complained about a lack of a Legendary Kiriko skin. Maybe the third time’s a charm for that. But for now, the ongoing complaints about Mercy hogging all the skins have dominated the discussion around this particular Overwatch 2 skin collab.
This exceptional 2025 crossover brings old-school arcade fighting game vibes to Overwatch 2’s vivid world, making its heroes look more aggressive and ready to battle than ever before. What makes this crossover event so special is the attention to detail — the skins fully transform each hero, bringing in maneuvers and personal flair inspired by each Street Fighter character for a truly in-your-face experience.
The skins are as follows:
As is the norm for the gaming community, there was one bit of controversy however: Widowmaker’s extra shorts underneath her Cammy outfit. While still quite cheeky, the shorts attempted to make Cammy’s outfit a bit more appropriate for Overwatch audiences, and some players were not happy about the compromise.
The Four Nations came together for this glorious Overwatch 2 crossover, bringing all the elements to Future Earth. An event back in 2024 also had Avatar-themed cosmetics as rewards, including sprays and emotes. The highlight, of course, was the skins, all of which were based on the most popular cartoon characters and did a great job representing them.
The skins included:
What made this stand out among other Overwatch 2 skin collabs is how transformative it truly was — the heroes absolutely embody the characters, looking eerily similar from one to the next. The color and shape of the costumes was spot-on, and Orisa as Appa was an especially fun blend.
This 2024 skin collaboration is top-tier due to its bold character portrayals. My Hero Academia is one of the most popular anime shows out there and its characters are instantly recognizable. Artists at Blizzard got them just right while still keeping true to Overwatch 2’s hero visuals and overall style.
The hero-versus-villain theme included these skins:
You can tell that Blizzard thought long and hard about which hero matched each character. Deku’s bubbly personality totally matches Tracer’s vibes, while Tomura’s sinister coldness is appropriately aligned with Reaper’s edgy behavior.
Some Overwatch 2 fans were a bit disheartened, however, with Reinhardt and Kiriko getting another Legendary skin collaboration after the previous additions. It’s a common issue within the Overwatch 2 community as players debate which heroes deserve the next skins, and hopefully future skin collaborations will include lesser represented heroes that need a bit more love.
