Unlocking Imagination: Potential Epic Crossovers for Overwatch 2's Exciting Future
The latest Overwatch 2 Season 7 collaboration has just been unveiled, and it's a Diablo crossover, causing a wave of excitement among dungeon crawler fans. Unsurprisingly, the Lilith Moira skin has been creating quite a buzz. For those who've been enjoying Blizzard's collaborations, the upcoming season is just around the corner, promising more thrilling content.
Over a year ago, Overwatch 2's Commercial Leader expressed a keen interest in collaborations similar to Fortnite's successful approach. Following the triumph of the One Punch Man partnership in Season 3, it's likely that Blizzard will explore more opportunities. When considering potential future crossovers for Overwatch 2, it's evident that Team 4 has a wealth of intellectual properties to choose from.
Overwatch 2 and Attack on Titan
Attack on Titan, initially airing in 2013, was once the highest-rated anime. While the Fortnite and Attack on Titan crossover was well-received, Overwatch 2's universe might be better suited for the gritty nature of these characters. Moreover, Overwatch 2's 3D cartoon style would be an ideal canvas for portraying characters like Reinhardt as the Armored Titan, Winston as the Beast Titan, or Genji as Levi Ackerman. A Reddit user, Synnova32, even created concept art of an Eren Jaeger skin for Ramattra that beautifully captures both their personalities.
Overwatch 2 and Super Mario Bros.
It's no secret that Super Mario Bros. stands as Nintendo's most successful franchise. Consequently, the overlap between Overwatch 2 players and fans of this platformer series is substantial. Over the years, creative artists have shared concepts for Mario-inspired skins, envisioning Shy Guy Reaper, Princess Peach Mercy, and Baptiste as Mario, thanks to his Exo Boots. Baptiste already has a spray in the game that hints at Mario, so it might be time for Blizzard to take this idea to the next level.
Overwatch 2 and Avatar: The Last Airbender
The striking resemblance between several characters in Avatar: The Last Airbender and heroes from Blizzard's shooter is remarkable. Zenyatta as Aang seems like a perfect match, while Orisa could easily transform into Appa, drawing considerable attention. Mei could take on the role of Toph if her ice abilities were reimagined to resemble earthbending, alongside Widowmaker as Azula, Lucio as Sokka, Sigma as The Boulder, and Genji as Blue Spirit Zuko.
Overwatch 2 and DC Comics
DC Comics boasts iconic characters like Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash. Interestingly, some Overwatch heroes have counterparts in the DC universe. Hanzo as Green Arrow is a natural choice, and Junkrat's manic personality aligns surprisingly well with The Joker's. Fans have even expressed interest in Ashe as Black Canary, Roadhog as Bane, Tracer as Flash, and Doomfist as Cyborg.
Overwatch 2 and SpyxFamily
While Spy x Family is a relatively recent anime that has gained a reputation in recent years, it's clear that several of its characters could make for a fun crossover in Overwatch 2. Widowmaker as the femme fatale Yor makes perfect sense, and Cole Cassidy could embody Loid wonderfully. Kiriko as the peanut-loving Anya might be a bit overpowered but certainly desirable. And the idea of Hammond as the family dog Bond would likely be a hit if Overwatch 2 decided to bring this concept to life.
