Overwatch 2 x Cowboy Bebop launches next week

Back in February, Blizzard released Overwatch 2’s 9th Season. Alongside the expected updates of a new battle pass and the like, the team teased an upcoming crossover with the popular anime Cowboy Bebop. Going live in just a few days, the team have now fully detailed the collab.

Set to go live on the 12th of March, the Overwatch 2 x Cowboy Bebop crossover appears to be one of the game’s biggest, including 5 new skins, namely:

• Cassidy as Spike
• Ashe as Faye
• Sombra as Ed
• Mauga as Jet
• Hammond as Ein

It is worth noting that the Ein skin for Hammond will be a free unlock, while the others will be paid acquisitions.

Speaking of skins, Blizzard have yet to actually show off the character packs, with them having released a teaser trailer in the style of the original anime’s opening instead. That said, the full designs for the crossover will be officially revealed on the 11th of March – one day ahead of its launch.

Unlike many live service games, Overwatch has been relatively conservative with the number of crossovers it has offered over the years. Hopefully this means that the various skins will be worth their – what will probably be a – high asking price.
