The world of Overwatch 2 is gearing up for a high-tech crossover, as trusted leakers have revealed a collaboration with the legendary mecha anime Gundam Wing. The leak, which surfaced via social media posts from reliable sources in the Overwatch community, hints at a range of anime-inspired skins and cosmetics expected to launch as part of Season 16—coinciding with Gundam Wing's 30th anniversary on April 25, 2025. While Season 16 already introduced new gameplay updates and anime-themed cosmetics, this surprise crossover is set to dive even deeper into fan service for anime and mecha lovers alike. According to dataminer Llamalaxy and former Blizzard employee OverwatchNaeri, four new skins are slated to arrive based on iconic Gundam suits: Mercy: Wing Gundam – A skin modeled after Heero Yuy’s Wing Gundam, with flying elements that match Mercy’s airborne playstyle. Some Overwatch 2 players are excited about the detailed anime crossovers, while others expressed fatigue at yet another high-profile skin being given to Mercy, who already receives frequent cosmetic updates. Whether you’re a Gundam pilot or an Overwatch veteran, this is one crossover that blends nostalgia, style, and gameplay flair.
