Blizzard is celebrating WoW’s 20th anniversary with Overwatch 2 crossover

World of Warcraft is about to celebrate its 20th anniversary, and Blizzard Entertainment is doing an Overwatch 2 crossover to mark the occasion.

The first character to receive a new, MMORPG-inspired look will be Overwatch‘s Widowmaker, who will get a WoW’s Sylvanas Windrunner skin, Blizzard announced on X on Aug. 20. The skin looks almost identical to one of the Windrunner sisters in WoW. It’s purple, like in the fantasy universe (and conveniently the color of Widowmaker’s default skin), and she holds a bow. The only change is a sniper rifle, Widowmaker’s main tool, which Blizzard has remade in the WoW aesthetic. Although if you see it as an ambitious transmog for the Night Elf, it’s more than believable she could be using a gun.
