It’s now officially confirmed that Overwatch 2 will be teaming up with Capcom’s legendary Street Fighter series.

In the trailer, various Overwatch 2 characters are depicted adopting the likenesses of popular Street Fighter 6 figures. For instance, Juno assumes the role of Chun-Li, while Zenyatta takes on Dhalsim’s appearance, and many others follow suit. Here’s a glance at the heroes receiving the Street Fighter style transformation:

  • Juno – Chun-Li
  • Cammy – Widowmaker
  • Kiriko – Juri
  • Soldier: 76 – Guile
  • Winston – Blanka
  • Zenyatta – Dhalsim
  • Sigma – M. Bison

Even though Blizzard has done some impressive IP crossovers before, this one really stands out with its visually stunning skins that I can’t wait to chase once the collaboration drops.
