The Overwatch 2 Halloween Terror event is quickly approaching, and the new trailer teases what to expect, including some new spooky skins. However, for some fans, the manner in which Blizzard releases the new content confirms their concerns about how Overwatch 2 will handle such releases in the future.

The annual Overwatch Halloween Terror event debuted with the original game in 2016, bringing with it a slew of seasonal skins and other creepy cosmetics. It also introduced a new game mode called Junkenstein's Revenge to fans. Previously, Blizzard announced that the event would return this year from October 25 to November 8, bringing players a new spin on the existing Junkenstein Halloween mode called Junkenstein's Revenge: Wrath of the Bride, with an appropriately-dressed Sombra in the lead role.

Blizzard has released a trailer showing off more of this year's content. Several characters in the video are dressed in previous Overwatch Halloween skins, such as Anna's Mummy costume and Sigma's Flying Dutchman outfit. Most importantly, it introduces two new skins to fans: Witch Kiriko and Executioner Junker Queen. Kiriko wears a traditional witch's hat and carries what appear to be pagan spell-casting cards rather than her usual Healing Ofuda. At the same time, the Junker Queen is dressed in all-black spikes and an executioner's hood. It's worth noting that, while Mercy has a witch skin in Overwatch 2, hers is darker and edgier, whereas Kiriko's is more playful, making the two fairly distinct.
