Overwatch 2 is a first-person shooter game published by Blizzard Entertainment, a sequel-slash-replacement to the original smash-hit Overwatch, which wildly popularized the "hero shooter" genre.

Sometimes, people remember Overwatch 2 exists.

Between July 9 and July 23, 2024, a collaboration with the Transformers franchise took place as part of the game's eleventh season. A promotional comic, "Transmission", was released on July 5 to promote the event.

Transformers content

The collaboration adds four character skins, including Reinhardt as Optimus Prime, Bastion as Bumblebee, Illari as Arcee, and Ramattra as Megatron. Each skin can be purchased in a bundle with a set of accompanying cosmetics for 2500 credits (roughly $25 USD — YIKES), or all together as part of a "mega bundle" for 5900 credits. So if you're planning to get more than one, there's really no point in buying anything but the bundle. The distribution of cosmetics for each bundle is as follows:

Character	Skin	Highlight Intro	Victory pose	Name card	Player icon	Voice lines	Spray
Bastion	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	No	No
Illari	Yes	No	Yes	Yes	Yes	1	No
Reinhardt	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	3	No
Ramattra	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes	2	Yes
