Overwatch 2 – Pink Mercy Charity Event
Overwatch would not be where it is without you. You’ve pushed the payload, fought to capture the point, and cheered your teams to victory. Whether you are a tank main, damage one-trick, or support superstar, you’re all heroes. Since Overwatch launched in 2016, we’ve had over 100 million players answer the call, and we’re celebrating this milestone with something very special. One of our favorite memories from this history of Overwatch is when we all came together for a great cause and helped make a difference in the lives of those affected by breast cancer. In May 2018, we introduced the Pink Mercy skin, which helped raise $12.7 million USD for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF). Now, to answer the call of so many of you who have been asking for Pink Mercy in the years since, and to once again support an incredible cause, we’re excited to announce beginning on June 25, you can purchase the original Pink Mercy skin for the original price of $14.99 USD, with 100% of the purchase price (excluding any applicable platform fees and taxes) to be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.* And that’s not all! We’re also giving everyone the chance to help support this cause with a brand-new charity cosmetic bundle, the Rose Gold Mercy bundle, also available for purchase for a limited time starting on June 25. This bundle will be exclusively available for a limited time for $19.99 USD, and just like Pink Mercy, 100% of the purchase price (excluding any applicable platform fees and taxes) will be donated to BCRF*, funding critical breast cancer research. Answer the call of this wonderful cause from Tuesday, June 25 through Monday, July 8. Thank you for being a part of this incredible community—together, we are excited to once again make a difference!
