Can you believe that it’s been a year since we were introduced to the billion-dollar FPS franchise

that is Overwatch?

That’s right, it’s been a whole year since Overwatch was released. And it’s safe to say they’re really

spoiling us with some exciting stuff to commemorate this.

To celebrate, there’ll be an Anniversary Event (https://playoverwatch.com/en-

us/events/anniversary/), where people at Blizzard Entertainment are generously showering fans

with some amazing gifts, including tones of new updates, rewards and new loot.

In the trailer released for the Overwatch Anniversary Event, we see the new Legendary skins for the legendary heroes, new arena maps, game

modes, and even dance emotes.

[NEW SEASONAL EVENT] Welcome to our Overwatch An…

Now you can celebrate Overwatch‘s first anniversary with all of your favorite heroes busting some serious moves on the dance floor.

The new arena maps shown are Ana Amari’s camp Necropolis, the rotund town of Castillo, and forgotten Black Forest. Blizzard added a two new

elimination game modes for players to test out these maps.

Be sure to check out the event from now until June 12 . You can also get your special Anniversary Loot Boxes between now and then. Anniversary

Loot Boxes are also available to purchase but will be locked away after the event is over.

Happy birthday Overwatch! Let’s get this party started!
