Overwatch 2 has had somewhat of a controversial life so far, with many of the game’s promises ultimately being canned in favour of more small-scale changes and additions over time. That said, the team at Blizzard have been putting a decent amount of work into each new Season – the latest of which will feature a Cowboy Bebop crossover.

Ahead of its launch on the 13th of February, Blizzard officially detailed Overwatch 2’s 9th Season. Alongside a rework to the game’s competitive mode; a new Cosmic Crisis limited time mode and of course a new Battle Pass, Season 9 is set to bring with it a crossover with the iconic Anime series Cowboy Bebop.

Though details on the collaboration remain light, the Season 9 trailer concluded with the Anime’s main theme song, confirming that some form of crossover will be taking place – likely part way through the season.

Crossovers such as this have been a relatively recent addition to Overwatch, though we have seen some pretty notable collabs, including the likes of One Punch Man; Diablo IV and the K-Pop group Le Sserafim.

It will be interesting to see how far they go with the Cowboy Bebop crossover – and which characters will get new thematically-linked skins.
