Overwatch X Avatar has just been confirmed, with a huge number of crossover collab skins teased ahead of release. Overwatch has had a busy month between a classic mode and the build-up to both a new season and 6-v-6 trials. However, these collabs are showing the core game still has plenty of room left to grow. Our next major collaboration will be arriving pretty soon.
In the next few days, we’ll see the end of the current Overwatch season. Once the new one begins, we have Overwatch X Avatar to look forward to. This is an event that means high-quality collab skins hit the shop, and sometimes a reward for free. What Overwatch X Avatar crossover items can we expect and when will it arrive in the game in full?

Overwatch X Avatar Announced
In the latest trailer for the new Overwatch season, we’ve got a good look at what’s coming. There are some exciting new skins, including the mythics and finally a skin for Venture. However, the end of the trailer has grabbed the most attention. Revealing the Overwatch X Avatar crossover.
These pop culture crossovers have become quite common to Overwatch. They’ve popped up a few times over Overwatch 2, but it’s always fun to see what’s being included next.
What can we expect with this new collab? The details released so far haven’t been as expansive as past announcements, there is no big reveal just yet. However, fans already have some ideas about what skins would make good bases for the heroes. The Overwatch collab skins have been of varying quality, but lately, they’ve improved with the solid My Hero Academia skins. Avatar seems like a good franchise to map onto some Overwatch heroes or new skins.
When is New Collab Out?
This newest Overwatch collab has been announced with our first major Overwatch news drop for Season 14. We also know other features like Overwatch Classic will be returning too. The Avatar collab specifically has its own release date. It’s due to come to the game on December 17th. This will be when Overwatch gets its full reveal and we can get into the avatar skins included in the collab.
