Good news, Overwatch skins collectors (boy, that sounds creepier than I meant it to): new special skins are on the way early next year alongside the Blizzard World map, and they’ll be available in base loot boxes. No limited time special event restrictions, just brand new skins. The pot gets even sweeter for anyone who’s into Blizzard’s other games: the new skins are cool crossover designs that pay homage to Starcraft, Warcraft, and Diablo.
New cosmetics are coming to Overwatch in early 2018!
