Awesome Overwatch 2 Skin Concept Turns Reinhardt Into Freddy Fazbear

An incredibly talented Overwatch 2 fan recently created an amazing Reinhardt skin concept that turns the tank hero into Freddy Fazbear from Five Nights at Freddy’s. The immaculately designed skin transforms the Overwatch 2 hero into the popular animatronic with a high level of detail.

One of the original Overwatch heroes, Reinhardt is an iconic character that has been a staple of the game for years. Made evident by the variety of fan art created of Reinhardt by Overwatch players, the tank hero is well-loved by the community and is often a source of inspiration for fan artists. Due to his inclusion in Overwatch since its release, Reinhardt has gained a wealth of different cosmetics that are available for players to unlock and equip. Although the game’s developers have provided players with several options when it comes to skins for the hero, many fans continue to design their own cosmetics for Reinhardt and other heroes of Overwatch.

Overwatch 2 Fan Spots Interesting Connection Between Sombra and Kiriko

It seems Overwatch 2’s hacker DPS Sombra and the fan-favorite kunai-slinging support hero Kiriko originally had more in common than fans realize.

Reddit user Onframer shared their impressive skin concept for Reinhardt that turns the character into Freddy Fazbear. The artist created an amazing design that perfectly brings Freddy’s likeness into the game, complete with his signature bowtie and tophat. Alongside this, Reinhardt’s scarred eye was also incorporated into the design, a neat detail that makes the skin concept even more impressive to the community. The level of detail put into the design makes the artist’s Reinhardt skin look exactly like a real Overwatch cosmetic that would be available in the game.

Freddy Fazbear Reinhardt Skin Concept Impresses Overwatch Fans

Alongside the impressive skin, the artist also turned Reinhardt’s hammer into an incredibly large microphone and stand, further selling the Freddy Fazbear aesthetic. The skin concept was incredibly well received by other Overwatch fans online. Many loved the design, with some claiming that if it were really in the game they would immediately buy it. Although the Five Nights at Freddy’s creator has stated that he is selective about collaborations with other franchises, it isn’t entirely out of the question that something like this might come to Overwatch one day.

The artist also shared a peek at what Freddy Fazbear Reinhardt looks like underneath his helmet/mask in the skin concept. The art showed the collection of metal and animatronic parts that make up Reinhardt’s head under the Freddy mask, which was slightly unnerving in true Five Nights at Freddy’s fashion. The incredible design showcases the talent of Overwatch 2 fans and their impressive creativity when it comes to fan art. While this amazing Five Nights at Freddy‘s Reinhardt skin might not be a part of the game, fans still have a lot to look forward to in the upcoming season 14, including the possible return of 6v6, something many have been eager to see.
