Community Update - 2022 in-game events (retail)

Hey Andy. The remixed skins look really good and I think this is a great alternative to the anniversary event while the team works on getting OW2 ready to launch. Was just curious if we’ll be getting an April fools experimental like we did last year.

can we also be able to buy past blizzcon skins like tyrande and ilidan, noire widow or pink charity skin for Mercy? these were the skins I’m missing and the return of just limited-edition event skins isn’t meaningful to those of us who already own them

They’ll be available on certain days only though, I was looking forward to Archives because the missions are available all day, every day, for multiple weeks, but now I have to hope the missions’ availability syncs up with my days off.

Why I have a feeling that it’s an early April Fools?

2022, the year of most skins recolors

As much as I like the d.va skin this is just horrible.
-recolors only
-no new challenge skins
-d.va never got archives legendary skin.

No ExCard this go-round, however be sure to keep an eye out for other beloved April Fool elements.

Keep an eye, got it :wink: :eyes:

Seriously, they couldn’t have started this idea with the next anniversary and just let us have archives as usual one last time?

So do these recoloured legendaries also cost 3000 credits, despite being literally white recolours of old legendaries?

Well, this should work. Was actually expecting all events to be canceled with the amount of work still needed for the PVP update. :smile:

If anything they should be discounted if you own the original.

I’m disappointed that players who got all the challenge skins won’t have anything for the 3 weeks. I really like the recolors so far and that they have actual changes in the mesh… though I really hope they don’t count to the “more legendary skins this year than ever before”…
