Footage of these new Overwatch character skins has been posted on the official Korean Overwatch Twitter account, which as a special announcement is reflective of how ubiquitous the game has now been with its Korean audience and Korean culture. Shown are the four new character skins for Bastion, Pharah, Soldier 76 and Zarya that will be available during the anniversary celebration events that start on May 23rd. The video seen above shows each of the new skins in full 360 degree glory, and the care for these new skins can clearly be seen in the details.
The Bastion gives the robot a nice orange and sporty look, while Pharah’s skin gives her a lighter blue skin compared to her standard darker blue. Solider 76 also gets a sporty orange costume, while Zarya’s gives her some cool new power armor. What do you guys think? Are you excited for these four new Overwatch Character Skins?
