What can we expect from Overwatch 2 Gundam Wing collab?

The official teasers have only indicated that the Gundam Wing collaboration with Overwatch might solely be a cosmetic event. Players can expect unique cosmetics for fan-favorite heroes, all skillfully designed to turn them into Gundam Wing characters.

The final official trailer, which goes live on April 28, 2025, might shine more light on the event's details. However, leaks do lead us to believe that the following heroes will be receiving exclusive Gundam Wing cosmetics:

Ramattra
Soldier: 76
Mercy
Reaper

While these characters are a fantastic choice for the mecha-themed collab, fans would be disappointed if Echo, D.Va, and Pharah do not make the list in the official reveal.

That said, there might potentially be a Gundam game mode in the works. However, until it is officially revealed, we can merely speculate.
