New leaks from prominent Fortnite leaker HYPEX have shed more light on the highly anticipated Overwatch collaboration coming to the battle royale, including a May release window and the full lineup of confirmed skins. Previously leaked cosmetics for D.Va and Tracer will be joined by two additional iconic heroes, with Genji and Mercy both confirmed to be part of the first wave. The skins are expected to be based on the characters' Overwatch 2 depictions, and a Porsche Macan SUV will also be added to the game alongside the cosmetics. The collaboration marks the first time the two major shooter franchises have officially crossed over, making it one of the more surprising and eagerly awaited collaborations of Chapter 7 Season 2.Fan speculation about what comes after the first wave is already in full swing.

Community discussions have pointed to Reaper, Widowmaker, Sombra, and Ashe as natural candidates for a potential second round of skins, with Kiriko also frequently mentioned given her prominent role in Overwatch 2's launch marketing. The Overwatch collaboration joins a packed lineup of Chapter 7 Season 2 crossovers that has already included Game of Thrones skins for Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and The Night King, as well as a Ben 10 collaboration featuring Ben Tennyson, Gwen Tennyson, and Omnitrix aliens. With the season moving into its second half, Epic Games appears to have no intention of slowing down its collaboration cadence.
