Overwatch 2 and Attack on Titan
Overwatch 2 and Super Mario Bros.
: Imagining Attack on Titan Characters in the Universe of Overwatch 2Undoubtedly, Nintendo's most successful franchise is Super Mario Bros. Consequently, it is not surprising that there is a considerable overlap between Overwatch 2 players and fans of the iconic platformer series. Throughout the years, devoted artists have shared their creative ideas for Mario-inspired character skins, such as Shy Guy Reaper, Princess Peach Mercy, and even a Mario-themed version of Baptiste, incorporating his Exo Boots. It is worth mentioning that Baptiste already possesses a spray that alludes to Mario in the game, leading one to believe that it may be time for Blizzard to expand on this concept and take it to new heights.
Overwatch 2 and Avatar: The Last Airbender
The similarities between various characters in Avatar: The Last Airbender and Blizzard's hero-shooter are truly remarkable. It is apparent that Zenyatta would be an ideal fit for the role of Aang, while Orisa taking on the persona of Appa would undoubtedly attract a large audience. Mei, with her ice abilities reimagined to resemble earth powers, would make a convincing Toph. Additionally, Widowmaker as Azula, Lucio as Sokka, Sigma as The Boulder, and Genji as Blue Spirit Zuko would all be fitting choices.
Overwatch 2 and DC Comics
DC Comics boasts a plethora of legendary characters, including Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash. Interestingly, within the realm of Overwatch, there exist certain heroes who bear similarities to their DC counterparts. Hanzo, resembling Green Arrow, is an undeniable match, whereas Junkrat's maniacal nature aligns all too perfectly with The Joker. Fans have even expressed their desire to see Ashe embody Black Canary, Roadhog as Bane, Tracer as Flash, and Doomfist as Cyborg.
Overwatch 2 and SpyxFamily
Although Spy x Family is a relatively new anime that has garnered praise in recent years, it is undeniable that several of its characters would be a delightful addition to Overwatch 2. Widowmaker perfectly embodies the femme fatale persona of Yor, while Cole Cassidy would be an ideal fit for the charming character of Loid. Kiriko, with her love for peanuts, may prove to be too formidable as the endearing Anya, but her inclusion would undeniably be desired. Additionally, Hammond taking on the role of the family's loyal dog, Bond, would surely be a crowd-pleaser if Overwatch 2 were to bring this concept to life.
Overwatch 2 is now available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
