Season 14 of Overwatch 2 launches on Dec. 12, and it will welcome a new hero — Scottish punk rock tank Hazard — to Blizzard Entertainment’s hero shooter. The upcoming season of Overwatch 2 will also feature the game’s next major crossover, Avatar: The Last Airbender, based on new teasers released on Thursday.
Blizzard doesn’t reveal much about the impending Overwatch 2-meets-Avatar collab, save for a peek at what appears to be an Aang skin for Zenyatta. On social media, the developer also hinted that Venture — an Overwatch 2 hero with a criminally low number of skins — would get one themed around earthbender Toph Beifong. That would leave a waterbender and firebender still to be identified as part of the Overwatch roster.
It’s not clear yet what the extent of the Overwatch 2-meets-Avatar crossover will entail, but players should expect a handful of skins — most if not all of them requiring the premium currency Overwatch Coins to unlock.
Avatar: The Last Airbender will represent the third major animated tie-in with Overwatch, following collaborations with series One Punch Man and Cowboy Bebop. Blizzard has also welcomed K-pop group Le Sserafim, Hasbro’s Transformers, and brands Porsche, Lego, and Gentle Monster into Overwatch over the years.
In addition to the ATLA collab, Overwatch 2 season 14 will include a number of returning modes and limited-time events, including Winter Wonderland, Lunar New Year, and Overwatch 2 Classic. The return of Classic mode will bring its balance back to the Moth old meta era, when Mercy dominated the game, ultimately forcing Blizzard to rework her.
Overwatch 2 is available to play for free on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
