Summary
SomeOverwatch 2players have said they would like to see the addition of a story mission that they believe is related to the new Polar skin series.Overwatch 2often adds new cosmetics for players to equip on their favorite heroes, using a range of inspirations such as mythologies, or collaborations with other famous IPs.
With the launch of Season 12,Overwatch 2has brought a new wave of cosmetics that can be acquired in different ways. One of these outfits isReaper’s new Mythic skin, which reimagines the hero as the Egyptian god Anubis. Mercy, one of the characters who continually gets new skins, has been given two new ones: Formalwear and Wyvern. Another series announced for the current season is Polar, butOverwatch 2players complained about one aspect related to them.
Reddit user gradyjkelly complained that they would like to see the release of the story mission for which they believeOverwatch 2made the Polar skins. In the post, they argue that the new series is “definitely linked to a PvE mission,” due to the visual pattern. Justifying the name, the Polar skins give several heroes of the Blizzard shooter outfits for low temperatures. Last year, the game added the Ana, Tracer, and Sojourn skins, while the Lucio, Reinhardt, Brigitte, Genji, and Baptiste skins are some of the new cosmetics announced forOverwatch 2Season 12. The Mercy skin, on the other hand, has never seen the light of day.
Overwatch 2 Players Remember the Death of PvE Content
One of the most debated decisions in the history ofOverwatch 2was thescraping of the long-awaited PvE content, with the justification that “it was not possible to fulfill the original vision” shown in 2019. In the comments section, players remembered the cancelation with sadness, recalling facts that led to poor reception, such as the PvE content being locked behind a paywall. Another Redditor commented that the community “will never see this mission,” since most of the PvE team was laid off in March of this year.
Important details need to be considered for players who are planning to buy thenew Polar series skins. The Reinhardt, Genji, and Brigitte cosmetics will appear in theOverwatch 2Shop rotation at some point during Season 12, where they will be available via Overwatch Coins. Baptiste’s skin can be unlocked by purchasing the current season’s Starter Pack along with 1,000 coins, while Lucio’s is unlocked by reaching tier 70 of the free battle pass.
