Overwatch 2 x Transformers Collab - New Skins Predictions

Blizzard Entertainment has teased an exciting collaboration between Overwatch 2 and the iconic Transformers franchise. A newly released comic provides fans with a glimpse into the storyline behind the crossover and hints at the Transformers characters set to make an appearance in the game. 

The comic indicates that four Transformers characters—Megatron, Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Arcee—will be featured in the collaboration. The article explores potential Overwatch heroes that could receive these skins, considering character traits and thematic alignments.

So without further delay, let us explore all the possible skins and heroes that could be getting these skins. 

The Teaser Comic

Earlier today, Blizzard released a comic featuring Overwatch 2's Ramattra. The story begins with Ramattra lamenting his forces' failures against the might of Overwatch. In a surprising twist, he is contacted by Megatron from the Transformers universe. 

Megatron proposes a collaboration, suggesting that Ramattra become his avatar within the Overwatch world. This setup hints at a Megatron skin for Ramattra, which many fans had predicted.

Confirmed Transformers Characters

The comic not only introduces the idea of Ramattra as Megatron but also reveals that three Autobots—Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Arcee—are aware of Megatron's plans. They resolve to find their own hero avatars within Overwatch, implying that these characters will also have skins in the game. 

While the comic doesn't provide visual previews of the skins, it confirms the characters involved in the collaboration.

Predicted Skins and Hero Pairings

Megatron

Ramattra's transformation into Megatron seems like a natural fit. Both characters share a desire for peace through power, making this pairing an exciting prospect. Fans eagerly await the reveal of how Ramattra will embody the fearsome Decepticon leader.

Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime, the noble leader of the Autobots, would be an excellent match for Reinhardt. Both characters are known for their strong moral compasses and leadership qualities. Additionally, Optimus Prime has wielded an axe in various Transformers iterations, which aligns with Reinhardt's hammer.

Bumblebee

Bumblebee's playful and cutesy demeanor aligns well with Bastion, Overwatch's lovable robot. In the Transformers films directed by Michael Bay, Bumblebee is mute, much like Bastion, who communicates through beeps and boops. This pairing would likely be a hit among fans who appreciate the charm of both characters.

Arcee

Arcee's skin is the most challenging to predict. Given her agile and sleek design, several Overwatch heroes could potentially receive this skin. Echo, with her robotic nature and fluid movements, seems like a plausible choice. Alternatively, characters like Pharah or Brigitte might also suit Arcee's persona, though these choices would be less obvious.

Awaiting Official Reveals

As fans speculate about these exciting new skins, Blizzard remains tight-lipped about further details. It's expected that more information, including gameplay trailers and skin previews, will be released closer to the collaboration's launch. This likely means more teasers and a potential reveal of any additional skins or associated game modes.
