A new patch has just hit Overwatch and this update includes the Overwatch League Team Skins.
Recommended Videos
The skins are available in-game via the League Token system and home team skins are available for all 26 heroes. I have no idea why players would want to play with these skins and they are not exactly cheap as you can see from the pricing:
- 100 Tokens = USD $4.99
- 200 Tokens = USD $9.99
- 400 Tokens = USD $19.99
- 900 Tokens = USD $39.99
- 2600 Tokens = USD $99.99
Each skin will set you back 100 of these tokens (see video) and no doubt the fanatical fans will be happy to spend the money. If you purchased all the team skins for every hero you would kiss goodbye to around $1200. That’s quite extreme, but even supporting one team with all heroes, that would cost $99.99.
In related news, the Overwatch League has today signed an exclusive deal with Twitch so that’s where it will be aired.
Other than the skins, the new patch also includes the following.
General
- Players can now watch the Overwatch League stream via the Overwatch League menu option when games are live
- Weapon accuracy is no longer increased or decreased when shooting at Genji’s Deflect or abilities that block projectiles (e.g. Winston’s Barrier Projector or Mei’s Ice Wall)
UI
