Witchcraft and horror in the new season 13

Overwatch 2

10/11/2024 - The 13th season of Overwatch 2 is all about witchcraft and horror. With new skins, modes and an exciting My Hero Academia collaboration, players can expect a magical experience to match the Halloween season.

Overwatch 2 kicks off a dark adventure with Season 13, promising spooky magic and thrilling battles. The new season, which was announced on October 11, 2024, brings a range of exciting Halloween-themed content that expands the game with magical skins, new game modes and a special crossover event.

Spellweaver skin for Widowmaker

The highlight of this season is the mythical "Spellweaver" skin for Widowmaker. This special skin evolves with each progression and shows the transformation from a student of witchcraft to a master of the dark arts. The journey is accompanied by special animations, effects and sounds that emphasize the dark atmosphere. The fiery headgear that crowns Widowmaker at the highest level is particularly striking. With every step on this journey, players delve deeper into the magical world that the skin brings with it.

Halloween Horror Event

No Halloween in Overwatch would be complete without the "Halloween Horror" event. From October 15 to November 4, players can test their skills in "Junkenstein's Lab", a new PvP mode. Here they will be equipped with talent cards that change the characteristics of their heroes and turn the battlefield into a real mess. Classics such as "Junkenstein's Revenge" also return, with new challenges and enemies providing fresh thrills. Players will find themselves in haunted castles, solving puzzles and battling exploding zombie omnics as they unravel the mystery of Adlersbrunn.

My Hero Academia collaboration

Another exciting highlight of the season is the collaboration with the popular anime series My Hero Academia. From October 17 to 30, players can equip their heroes with skins inspired by characters from the series. Tracer becomes Deku, Reinhardt becomes All Might, while Reaper appears as Tomura Shigaraki. This collaboration brings an exciting new dynamic to the game and is complemented by additional cosmetic extras available in the Mega Pack.

In addition to the Spellweaver skin for Widowmaker, up to 80 Mythic Prisms and a weapon skin for Soldier: 76 can be unlocked. There are also five festive costumes waiting for players, including the Swamp Witch for Ana and the Monstrous Sigma, giving the battlefield a spooky Halloween vibe.
