It looks like the Blizzard World new map for Overwatch isn’t the only crossover happening for the hit FPS. New skins, emotes, highlight intros and more are all inbound for all 26 heroes, and that includes pretty epic crossovers with some of their other popular franchises like World of Warcraft, Diablo, and StarCraft. And don’t worry! These aren’t event skins, so there is no time limit on when players can earn them with the basic loot box system. Either play to earn, or you can purchase them with in-game currency. Player’s choice!

What’s new:
Below are the 8 new skins available for the Heroes of Overwatch – Can we just admire that there is now a Butcher Roadhog?!
- Barbarian Zarya
- Blackhand Doomfist
- Butcher Roadhog
- Crusader Reinhardt
- Ecopoint Mei
- Magni Bronzebeard Torbjörn
- Nova Widowmaker
- Immortal Orisa
Arguably the best part (You know, besides the gorgeous Nova Widowmaker) is that they aren’t going to be timed exclusives, as mentioned before. No matter what season it is, no matter what event taking place, these new cross-over skins will be available to earn and show off no matter the time of year.
Join me in GLORIOUS combat!
Unfortunately, we don’t have a set release time yet for when these epic new skins will launch, but we do know that they will be available sometime early next year! It’s also possible that even more new skins will be available in this crossover heaven … Demon Hunter, perhaps?
Sad that D.Va wasn’t in the mix of new redesigns? Don’t worry, we’ve got your covered there to show you “the love”. To get your tank on, check out the new line of D.Va-inspired gaming gear from Razer here! Those headphones though … Hana Song approved, most definitely!
