Overwatch’s ‘Halloween Terror’ Event Kicks Off Today
Another year brings another Overwatch ‘Halloween Terror’ event during the Season of the Witch. Said event is slated to kick off at some point today, October 15, and run through until November 4th. This year’s event has been a rather low key affair at Blizzard, with the developer releasing a single teaser via Twitter showcasing a new emote for Zenyatta. The emote shows the support hero – who normally floats around in a cross-legged position – standing and stretching before assuming his normal look. If that doesn’t freak you out I don’t know what will. Check it out below:
