A talented Overwatch 2 fan artist has recently designed a new set of skins inspired by Avatar: The Last Airbender, which successfully shows how epic a crossover between the two worlds would be. These concepts combine the clothing style of popular Avatar characters with Overwatch 2 heroes.

As Season 11 goes on, Overwatch 2 is preparing to release an exciting Transformers crossover and the annual Summer Games event, both of which launch on July 9. Blizzard has also released a digital comic strip that teased four Transformers-themed skins for the upcoming crossover event. Additionally, Season 11 adds a bunch of Mythic Weapon Skins and a new Push map called Runasapi, which provides players with another location to play on.

The fan art featuring skin concepts was shared by Reddit user TheKetamineEmperor, featuring imaginative takes on Overwatch 2 heroes, such as a Ty Lee-inspired skin for Tracer or Hanzo being turned into Prince Zuko. The fan artist has created skin concepts for a total of 17 heroes out of 40, and all of them perfectly incorporate elements from the Avatar series. The post has gathered a massive number of upvotes with comments that highly praise the artworks.

All of these skins posted by TheKetamineEmperor show how great a crossover between Overwatch 2 and Avatar: The Last Airbender could be. Aside from the Transformers crossover event, the July 9 update for Overwatch 2 will add summer-themed skins for Cassidy, Orisa, Bastion, and many other heroes. In the past, Blizzard has also brought back older skins associated with the event and provided a slight discount, though at this time, nothing official has been revealed quite yet.

In another recent development, Overwatch 2 players have recently spotted mysterious meteors seen on multiple maps. Though it has not been confirmed, the fans are speculating that this could be a teaser for Season 12's new hero, Space Ranger. Some of them also think that this could just be a hint for the Transformers crossover event.

There have also been certain changes in Overwatch 2's Season 11, meant to balance the gameplay to ensure a fair and competitive environment. For instance, Roadhog has been nerfed and Cassidy's Flashbang ability has been brought back with a tweak. While these changes adjust and update the gameplay dynamics of Overwatch 2, they also encourage fans to discuss and strategize with fellow players.
