Season 14 of Overwatch 2 launches on December 10 and welcomes a new hero – Scottish punk rock tank Hazard – to Blizzard Entertainment’s hero shooter. The upcoming season of Overwatch 2 will also feature the game’s next big crossover, Avatar: The last airbenderbased on new teasers released Thursday.
Blizzard isn’t revealing much about the upcoming one Overwatch 2-meet-Avatar collab, aside from a look at what appears to be an Aang skin for Zenyatta. The developer also does this on social media hinted that venture – a Overwatch 2 hero with a criminally low number of skins – would get one themed around Earthbender Toph Beifong. That would leave a waterbender and a firebender yet to be identified as part of the Overwatch roster.
It is not yet clear what the size of the Overwatch 2-meet-Avatar crossover will entail, but players should expect a handful of skins – most, if not all, will require the premium currency Overwatch Coins to unlock.
Avatar: The last airbender will mark the third major animated collaboration with Overwatch, following series collaborations One punch man And Cowboy Bebop. Blizzard has also welcomed K-pop group Le Sserafim, Hasbro’s Transformers, and brands Porsche, Lego, and Gentle Monster to Overwatch over the years.
Next to the ATLA to collaborate, Overwatch 2 season 14 includes a number of returning modes and limited-time events, including Winter Wonderland, Lunar New Year and Overwatch 2 Classic. The return of Classic mode will bring the balance back to the old Moth meta era, when Mercy dominated the game and eventually forced Blizzard to rework her.
Overwatch 2 is available for free to play on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series
