Overwatch\u00a0<\/em>players who have unlocked\u00a0Overwatch<\/em>\u00a0League skins are in for a treat\u2014free skins! On the test server, “away” skins for the\u00a0Overwatch<\/em>\u00a0League have been unlocked per each “home” skin owned. If you’ve purchased the New York Excelsior skin for Tracer, you’ll see the “away” skin automatically available in your skin inventory for the hero.<\/p>
The update was uploaded to the test server with a bunch of hero changes and the addition of B.O.B. as a golden weapon. As with all PTR changes, it’s expected to move over to the live server soon. (An exact date hasn’t been named, but two weeks is standard.) Previously, “away”\u00a0Overwatch<\/em>\u00a0League skins were only available<\/a> to those who had the\u00a0Overwatch<\/em>\u00a0League All-Access Pass.<\/p>

Only 12 heroes were assigned “away” skins\u2014D.Va, Ana, Zarya, Genji, Sombra, L\u00facio, Widowmaker, Orisa, Winston, Reinhardt, Zenyatta, and Junkrat. The skins are primarily white, with pops of color that reference a team’s main colors. Players who spent the $30 for the All-Access Pass will find that they’ve earned the “home” skin for the “away” ones they’ve already unlocked,\u00a0Overwatch<\/em>\u00a0site Overbuff confirmed<\/a> on Twitter. If you already have the “home” and the “away” skins, there’s nothing else to earn.<\/p>
