Overwatch had announced their Season 3 battle pass in a recent tweet. Releasing on February 7, they also released a road map. The first event is a dating simulator coming out on February 13. According to Game Rant, players will be allowed to “romance” Mercy or Genji with the help of cupid Hanzo.
According to the Overwatch website, “Loverwatch is a non-canon text-based dating sim where players will choose between two potential dating paths: Mercy or Genji. Players will be presented with dialogue options to interact with that hero and will be assisted by Cupid (who looks suspiciously like Hanzo). Unlock the secret ending, and you’ll be rewarded with a themed POTG Highlight!”
This Valentine’s day event also includes a Hanzo 4v4 Limited Time Mode allowing the player to earn “epic skins, among other rewards”. However, fans are excited about the One Punch Man collaboration. Including a new skin for Doomfist. However, this is not the only item that they teased that is coming out, “We’ll reveal each item before they drop on March 7, with one being a Legendary skin that’s earnable via themed challenges.”
Toronto Defiant, an Overwatch professional team comments:
Overwatch is also stating that they are coming out with an Asian Mythology theme & Kiriko Mythic skin. “Overwatch has long explored and celebrated real-life cultures from around the world… we’re excited to share we’re diving into Asian Mythology as the theme for season three!”
Another announcement that they made was the return of Pachimarchi from March 21-April 4. This update comes out with a “limited-time Kill Confirmed game mode…, including a skin, six Pachimarchi player icons, a weapon charm, and name card.”
