Season 14 ofOverwatch 2is here, and with it comes the highly anticipated crossover with Nickelodeon’s critically acclaimed show,Avatar: The Last Airbender. Teased at the end ofOverwatch 2’s Season 14 trailer, eagle-eyed fans caught a glimpse of what appears to be Zenyatta dressed in an Avatar Aang skin. While some are hoping for skins like Blue Spirit Genji, Cabbage Man Wrecking Ball, King Bumi Sigma, and Katara Mei, only one skin has been confirmed.
A potential image ofOverwatch 2’s upcoming crossover skins was initially leaked on TikTok. Blizzard has yet to verify its authenticity, but the timing makes it seem credible. Scheduled to hit the in-game shop on December 17, here’s what players can look forward to from this collaboration.
Overwatch 2 and Avatar: The Last Airbender Skins
Players Can Expect 5 New Crossover Skins In Overwatch 2 Season 14
Venture is getting their first Legendary skin in Season 14. Though there are mixed feelings about it being a collaboration skin, their role as Toph Beifong inOverwatch 2’s collaboration withAvatar: The Last Airbenderseems perfect. As the only hero in the game that can dig underground, combining them with the Gaang’s stubborn earth-bending master is an obvious choice. The official Overwatch X account (formerly Twitter) confirmed this skin in a December 5 post.
Past crossovers, such asOverwatch 2’s collaboration withCowboy Bebop, typically include at least five skins. Based on the leaked image, which should be taken with a grain of salt, this includes:
Notably, there has been somecontroversy over Kirikopotentially receiving her third collaboration skin, followingLe SserafimandMy Hero Academia.Regardless, Orisa as Aang’s beloved sky bison Appa makes a lot of sense, and Zenyatta as Avatar Aang is a match made in heaven. While Blizzard may have missed an opportunity to have Genji as The Blue Spirit version of Zuko, it’s still an exciting concept.
Furthermore, sometimesOverwatch 2will grant free crossover skins for playing a certain number of matches or through Twitch Drops, such as Season 1’sSoldier: 76 Mumen Rider skin. However, theOverwatch 2xTransformerscollaboration may have done away with this tradition, according to aComicBook interview with Aimee Dennett,Overwatch 2‘s associate director of product management. As a result, fans shouldn’t count on a free skin in Season 14’s partnership, though it’s still too early to say for sure.
Overwatch 2’s Avatar: The Last Airbender Skin Prices and Extra Details
In the past, individual skin bundles for collaborations cost 2500 Overwatch Coins, with mega bundles set at 6800 Overwatch Coins. To purchase, players will need to navigate to the Overwatch Shop. It’s worth noting that if players only want to buy a skin without the associated emotes and sprays, they can head toOverwatch 2’s Hero Galleryduring the crossover withAvatar: The Last Airbenderto purchase them at a reduced price.
Collaboration skin bundle prices may fluctuate at Blizzard’s discretion.
Fans of both mediums can also expect to see a themed event with various challenges that will yield unique player icons, titles, and XP. If it’s anything likeOverwatch 2’s My Hero Academia challenges, cosmetics and XP can be earned by completing 10 to 100 games. Rewards related toAvatar: The Last Airbenderare guaranteed, though exactly what they may be is still a mystery. Hopefully, one of these will be an Air Nomad-related player title or something similar.
WithAvatar: The Last Airbendercrossed off theOverwatch 2collaboration wishlist, fans can look forward to more partnerships in the future. As Blizzard’s hero-shooter heads into 2025, they can expect more crossovers and fresh content in the coming seasons. Combined with Season 14’s Norse mythology theme, 6v6 playtests, and the introduction of Hazard, there’s plenty for players to be excited about.
