Porsche and game developer Blizzard Entertainment® announced a new collaboration today at the South by Southwest® (SXSW®) event, for their hit game Overwatch® 2. Later this Spring, players will be able to use special skins inspired by Porsche cars, including the new all-electric Macan, for two of their most popular characters.
Already established in racing games, the sports car manufacturer is also expanding its portfolio beyond the motorsport genre, beginning with Overwatch 2.
When the collaboration launches in-game this Spring, there will be numerous cosmetics for players to collect, including two Porsche-inspired skins. The first skin to be revealed is for the fan-favorite character, D.Va. A former professional gamer, pilots her robot-like Mech. Her new skin incorporates numerous design elements directly from the Macan Electric, such as the car’s characteristic flat upper light unit with the brand’s signature four-point daytime running lights. First impressions are provided by a life-sized Mech statue, premiering at South by Southwest®, and will be on show at other events throughout the year.
