Overwatch Anniversary Event Begins Next Week (VIDEO)

Last year proved to be another successful Overwatch Anniversary event for collector’s of epic and legendary character skins, as well as a fresh deathmatch map called Petra. Additionally, our heroes were given sweet updates or nerfs, and general fixes to smooth out the event festivities. This year, of course, will feature a wealth of new content too!

Beginning May 21st until June 10th, the Overwatch Anniversary event kicks off another successful year for the Blizzard franchise. Not yet detailed, this year’s anniversary will likely host a variety of exclusive outfits from different tiers, sprays, and emotes. As per usual, logging in during the event will grant players a free Legendary loot box, which comes with a guaranteed legendary item!

In other Overwatch news, the team recently dispatched a new map called Havana, bringing to the game a “vibrant port city” escort-type map based on the capital city of Cuba. Heroes are tasked with the mission to escort a truck of rum barrels in the warm, tropical air as they attempt to dodge enemy fire and sabotage.
