Cartoon Crossover Fun
In classic Overwatch style, the Cowboy Bebop video gives a nod to the anime's famous opening sequence and theme song. The characters from Overwatch 2 transform into Cowboy Bebop stars, with Cassidy as Spike, Ashe as Faye, Mauga as Jet, Wrecking Ball as Ein, and Sombra as Ed.
Blizzard teased this collaboration in February, following the success of the One Punch Man crossover last year. Previous collaborations also included K-Pop group Le Sserafim. The new video and YouTube description hint at an Overwatch train heist, adding excitement for what's to come.
What's Next? Exclusive Skins and Surprises
Blizzard hasn't spilled all the details yet. We don't know if there will be a new special game mode like in the One Punch Man and Le Sserafim events. The video suggests a thrilling train heist, leaving us guessing about what kind of fun gameplay we'll get.
Overwatch 2 fans are curious about the exclusive Cowboy Bebop skins and how much they'll cost. People remember the $40 bundle for the Diablo IV collaboration and wonder if it'll be the same. The answers are coming when Overwatch 2 Season 9 starts next week.
