The world of Overwatch 2 is about to get a fresh infusion of style, courtesy of a collaboration with the highly acclaimed K-pop group LE SSERAFIM. This exciting partnership, which kicks off on March 18, comes hot on the heels of the group’s latest album release, “Hot”. As fans of both Overwatch and K-pop, you can expect a thrilling experience that blends the best of both worlds.
In this second installment of the Overwatch 2 x LE SSERAFIM collaboration, players can look forward to brand-new skins for beloved heroes like Mercy, Juno, D.Va, and Ashe of Illari. Moreover, those who missed out on the first collaboration will have the opportunity to purchase skins for Brigitte, D.Va, Kiriko, Sombra, and Tracer – including a sleek recolor version of the latter. The attention to detail in these skins is a testament to the creative efforts of the Blizzard Korea studio, which played a significant role in developing the collaboration. As Dion Rogers, the art director of Overwatch, explained, the majority of the content was created by the Korean studio, ensuring an authentic representation of the trendy streetwear style that’s currently sweeping South Korea.
What’s more, the Overwatch team worked closely with LE SSERAFIM to bring this collaboration to life. The group shared their thoughts and ideas, resulting in a truly collaborative and enjoyable experience. This synergy is reflected in the skins, which not only showcase the heroes’ unique personalities but also embody the spirit of K-pop.
For those eager to get a glimpse of the action, a
video preview is available, offering a sneak peek at the exciting content that’s in store.
While the collaboration promises to be an unforgettable experience, it’s worth noting that the special Concert Clash mode will not be making a return, and there won’t be any new song releases, unlike the first collaboration.
