Overwatch 2‘s Final Valentine occasion is now reside, simply in time for Hallmark’s favourite vacation. In addition to taking part in a browser-based non-canon relationship simulator ‘LoverWatch‘ or the Hanzo-only Arcade mode ‘Love of Geometry,’ gamers should buy two brand-new Valentine’s themed bundles within the in-game store.
One among these is the Chocolate Wrecking Ball Bundle, that includes the brand new Sugar Bomb Wrecking Ball pores and skin, ‘Crushed‘ Spotlight Intro, and the Sweet Bomb Weapon Appeal — which seems to carry a sly reference to a different Activision Blizzard property.
The Sweet Bomb Weapon Appeal appears to be like remarkably just like the enduring Colour Bomb merchandise featured within the viral cell title Sweet Crush Saga. Whereas Wrecking Ball‘s bombs are used to defend vital areas of the map in Overwatch 2, the Colour Bomb might be detonated in Sweet Crush to clear the board of any chosen sweet.
Whereas this will appear to be an odd reference at first, Activision Blizzard is the dad or mum firm of King, the builders for Sweet Crush Saga and its many spin-offs. The corporate usually boasts Sweet Crush as one among its main properties, together with its colourful characters in press launch pictures referring to its gross sales statistics and Microsoft acquisition.
Additionally out there in Overwatch 2‘s in-game store is the Cupid Hanzo Bundle, that includes a ridiculously good-looking Hanzo Shimada garbed in a Cupid outfit, full with a beautiful pink bow. Sadly, we imply the weapon, not the hair accent, which might look pleasant.
The bundle additionally features a Coronary heart Pillow Memento, the Pierced Coronary heart Weapon Appeal, Cupid’s Kiss Spotlight Intro, and the ‘Cupid’s Goal‘ Title Card. Gamers also can earn the Cupid’s Kiss Spotlight Intro without cost by incomes the love of Mercy or Genji in LoverWatch, a slightly fascinating text-based relationship simulator formally launched by Blizzard to advertise the occasion.
