THE ROSE GOLD
After six long years, Blizzard is bringing back the highly coveted Pink Mercy skin in Overwatch. The Pink Mercy skin, which originally helped raise $12.7 million for breast cancer research, will be available once again starting June 25. Along with the original, a new rose gold variant will also be introduced.
The Iconic Pink Mercy Skin Returns
First released in May 2018, the Pink Mercy skin was more than just a cosmetic addition to Overwatch. It played a significant role in supporting the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF). The skin’s return is eagerly anticipated by the community, as evidenced by the excitement on social media following Blizzard’s announcement.
Limited-Time Availability
Both the original Pink Mercy and the new Rose Gold variant will be available for a limited time, from June 25 to July 8. The original skin will cost $15, while the rose gold version will be part of a $20 bundle that includes other cosmetics. Blizzard has committed to donating 100% of the purchase price (excluding platform fees and taxes) to the BCRF.
How to Get the Pink Mercy Skin
Acquiring the Pink Mercy skin in Overwatch 2 is straightforward. Players can purchase it through the in-game store, Blizzard.net, or other platforms like Steam. Here’s how:
- Start the game and go to the Shop.
- Find the Pink Mercy skin.
- Follow the purchase process.
Once bought, players can find the skin in their Hero section under Mercy. This new skin is notable not just for its aesthetic appeal but also for its unique sparkly sound effects and the bright pink glow it adds to Mercy’s wings during her ultimate ability.
The New Rose Gold Mercy Bundle
In addition to the Pink Mercy skin, Blizzard is introducing a Rose Gold Mercy bundle for $19.99. This bundle includes:
- Rose Gold Mercy Skin
- Rose Gold Weapon Skin
- 3 Name Cards
- 3 Sprays
- 3 Player Icons
These items were designed by popular community artists OWGrandma and A2Ziegler, adding an extra layer of community involvement to the bundle.
Supporting a Great Cause
The new skins are more than just a visual treat for players. They represent a significant charitable effort. In 2018, the sale of the original skin raised a record-breaking $12.7 million for the BCRF. With the return of the skin and the introduction of the new variant, Blizzard hopes to surpass the previous fundraising total, contributing even more to breast cancer research.
Conclusion
The return of the Pink Mercy skin in Overwatch is a momentous occasion for both fans and the BCRF. Available from June 25 to July 8, the Pink Mercy and Rose Gold Mercy skins offer players a chance to support a great cause while enjoying some of the game’s most iconic cosmetics. Whether you’re a longtime Mercy main or just looking to contribute to breast cancer research, this limited-time event is not to be missed.
