All Overwatch 2 Street Fighter 6 collaboration skins, release date, and more

A special Street Fighter collaboration has been announced for Overwatch 2, and there's plenty of special content coming soon for the fans. May seems to be a month of collaboration of Blizzard Entertainment (we saw Berserk x Diablo 4 already), and the trend now crosses over to Overwatch 2. If you've been enjoying the Stadium mode, there's more coming soon your way. This guide will provide all the important information that you need to remember regarding the upcoming collaboration. Overwatch 2 Street Fighter collaboration release date The upcoming collab will be part of the mid-season update, and it will go live on Tuesday, May 20. The release time is expected to be around daily reset, when the mid-season update will go live inside the game. All the content will be available to everyone for free as there's no separate DLC to download. https://twitter.com/OWCavalry/status/1920783363922690502 Overwatch 2 Street Fighter collaboration skins Eight heroes are part of the upcoming collaboration. The skins were revealed at EVO Japan on its opening day, and I'm already hyped about some of them. Hanzo: Ryu Winston: Blanka Soldier 76: Guile Sigma: M. Bison Widowmaker: Cammy Kiriko: Juri Juno: Chun Li Zenyatta: Dhalsim My top three to watch out for will be Cammy (Widowmaker), Chun Li (Juno), and Ryu (Hanzo). These are my three favorite fighters from Street Fighter, but all eight skins look amazing based on the gameplay renders. If you have played Street Fighter 6, you'll know about mechanics like Drive Impact and Drive Rush. The special skins will have an added splash of in-game effects, which makes them different from other skins. As of writing, we are uncertain how players will be able to obtain these skins. Chances are that at least some of them will be part of events that players will need to grind. A few might be exclusive to microtransactions as well, which could be a bit sad for the players. Nevertheless, the upcoming collabs could usher in a lot of new players, with some of them from the fighting games universe. There will be detailed guides about how to unlock the skins once we have more information from Blizzard.
