'Overwatch 2' Gets NERF'd as Part of New Collab Event
Featuring limited edition weapon skins and unlockable cosmetics, available until August 18.
Summary
- Overwatch 2 x NERF event runs August 5–18, featuring blaster-themed skins and fast-paced “NERF or Nothin’” game mode
- Iconic NERF weapons reimagined as cosmetics for Heroes like Cassidy, Tracer, Genji, Mei, Hanzo, Baptiste and Soldier: 76
Overwatch 2 has officially teamed up with NERF for a limited-time event packed with foam-fueled mayhem. Running from August 5 to 18, the crossover introduces blaster-themed weapon skins, unlockable cosmetics and a wild new free-for-all game mode dubbed “NERF or Nothin’.” Cassidy leads the lineup with a Legendary Hero skin featuring the NERF Maverick and a Vortex Football, while Tracer, Genji, Mei, Hanzo, Baptiste and Soldier: 76 all wield colorful, custom-designed NERF gear. The best part? These blaster skins layer over your current Hero skins, so your loadout stays loud no matter your look.
The “NERF or Nothin’” mode delivers nonstop chaos with 80 percent cooldown reduction, sticky Ult charge and rotating Heroes after every elimination (or three deaths). With no repeats, an all-star map roster and fast-paced action, it’s a frantic homage to living room NERF battles. Completing event challenges unlocks themed rewards, including sprays, charms and Tracer’s Gelfire Pro skin, along with up to 40,000 XP. For collectors, a Mega Bundle is also available in the shop.
