Overwatch Celebrating 2nd Anniversary With New Map, 50 Items, More

Overwatch is gearing up for their 2nd anniversary celebration, kicking off on May 22nd, and they are commemorating the milestone with a lot of new goodies.

Blizzard is holding an anniversary event that will include a new Deathmatch map, Petra, and more than 50 new cosmetic items to collect which included eight brand-new Legendary skins and three Epic-rarity skins.

Characters such as Moira, Brigette and Doomfist are all getting new dance emotes and all previously released seasonal cosmetic items, and “most” of the prior brawls for Arcade (on a daily, rotating basis), will be back for the new anniversary event.

Additionally, Petra is being added to the Deathmatch hopper, a new Competitive Mode is being added to Deathmatch, and new loot boxes are on the way.

A number of other things are in the works for what should be an incredible celebration!
