Video game collaborations are so hot right now at Blizzard Entertainment. Diablo recently announced a collaboration event with the anime series Berserk, and now the Overwatch 2 team is doing one with Capcom’s Street Fighter 6. While details are a bit light, the event is going live on May 20, with Blizzard saying, “Take your fighting skills to the next level when the legendary characters from Street Fighter 6 square off in Overwatch 2. Master their iconic moves and discover the martial artist in you.” The accompanying trailer shares a preview of the characters who will be getting a new skin for the event, including Winston as Blanka, Widowmaker as Cammy, Juno as Chun Li, Zenyatta as Dhalsim, Hanzo as Ryu, Kiriko as Juri, Sigma as M. Bison, and Soldier: 76 as Guile.
Unfortunately, we don’t have any in-game footage of the collaboration event, so it’s unclear how the characters will actually look. But like previous Overwatch 2 collaborations, these are just the heroes cosplaying as characters from other franchises. No word on pricing yet for these skins, but knowing both Blizzard and Capcom, they’re not going to be cheap.
