Overwatch Halloween Terror 2018 is Now Live, New Skins Revealed

Sombra, Soldier 76, Mei, and many more receive spooky new skins.

It’s October, and that means the return of Overwatch’s Halloween Terror event. The third iteration of the event sees the return of Junkenstein’s Revenge, along with the “endless” variant introduced last year, and a bevy of new cosmetics. Check out the trailer below, which takes place in a spooky version of Château Guillard.

The Bride of Junkenstein is Sombra, interestingly enough, and she receives a corresponding skin. Other heroes that have received new skins include McCree, Pharah, Widowmaker, Mei, Wrecking Ball, Doomfist, Soldier 76, and Moira. The signature pose this year seems to be everyone holding a pumpkin in some fashion. As usual, you can also expect some new voice-lines, sprays, player icons, and other goodies.

Overwatch’s Halloween Terror 2018 event will be available until October 31st. Along with the PvE mode’s return, the latest patch has changed up heroes like Pharah, Doomfist, and McCree, while completely reworking the defense hero Torbjorn. We’ll delve into greater detail with the patch notes soon, so stay tuned.
