The Brawls are back in town!
There are so many games celebrating birthdays this week!The Witcher 3 turned five,Red Dead Redemptionturned 10, and nowOverwatchis celebrating its fourth year. ForOverwatchit means its Anniversary event has kicked off once more, and from now until June 19th you’ll be able to replay all the old seasonal Brawls and grab a whole host of new cosmetic items. And I have to say, this year’s skins are particularly good.
These aren’t the only skins up for grabs though, because during the Anniversary you can unlock stuff previously released for any of the seasonal events. So if there are some you missed that you desperately wanted, now’s your chance to get them (I’m praying for the Aviator Pharah skin to pop out of a loot box, was gutted I missed it during the Archive event).
There are also new weekly challenges giving you a chance to earn some new outfits for Sigma, McCree and Widowmaker. You just have to get nine wins in any game mode each week to earn them.
This is made a little easier with all the old seasonal Brawls cycling through the arcade everyday. Today’s offering is Junkenstein’s Revenge - I like that one, it’s the Halloween PvE zombie horde mode and it’s good fun to mess around in. It’s also nearly impossible to lose if you play on the easier difficulty, so it’s a good way of ensuring those wins for your weekly challenges.
The rotating game modes aren’t random, though. You can see a schedule of which ones will pop up on what daysright hereso you don’t miss out on your faves.
