Controversy Erupts as Overwatch 2 Offers Exclusive Jester Sombra Skin for Free in Twitch Drops Event
October 17, 2024Overwatch 2 is currently running a promotional event offering the Jester Sombra Epic skin and other cosmetics as free Twitch Drops until late October.
This promotional period will conclude at 11:58 PM PDT on October 27, allowing players to earn rewards by watching streams.
To qualify for the rewards, players must watch a total of 10 hours of Overwatch 2 streams on Twitch, with specific rewards unlocked at 3, 6, and 10 hours.
In addition to the Twitch Drops, Season 13 of Overwatch 2 introduces Halloween Terror game modes, along with quality-of-life updates and hero balance changes.
Notably, Sombra has received significant nerfs in this season, raising questions about the timing of the free skin promotion.
The Jester Sombra skin has become a point of contention among fans, as it was previously available in the Founder’s Pack and the Clowning Around mega bundle.
Many players have expressed dissatisfaction with the decision to offer the Jester Sombra skin for free, feeling it undermines its previous exclusivity.
