Overwatch 2 Season 11 is bringing a major collaboration with the Transformers. The popular franchise from Hasbro is making its way to the shooter title, introducing skins from the Autobots and Decepticons.
As we wait for its release, we have gathered all the details revealed so you can prepare accordingly and decide if you're getting anything.
Release date
According to the Season 11 roadmap, the Transformers collab is set to drop on Tuesday, July 9. The new content will be added to the in-game files with the mid-season patch, which releases earlier than expected.
The new content will be available at 11:00 am PT (7:00 pm BST), just like with any standard update.

An end date for the event hasn't been announced but we expect it to last between two to three weeks.

Overwatch 2 and Transformers skins
As you can see in the trailer, the event brings four new skins based on characters from the franchise. Here is the list of heroes getting a new legendary cosmetic:
- Reinhardt - Optimus Prime
- Ramattra - Megatron
- Illari - Arcee
- Bastion - Bumblebee
We still don't know if this is the complete list of new skins, but the event will most likely introduce other minor cosmetics as rewards for completing challenges.
The Megatron skin for Ramattra was previously teased by a prelude comic that was released a few days before the start of the event. In the comic, which you can read here, Ramattra and Megatron form an unlikely alliance.
