Overwatch 2 Collaborates With K-pop Girl Group Le Sserafim

Blizzard Entertainment announced the Overwatch 2 partnership with Korean girl group Le Sserafim which will feature new music, group-inspired game mode, and exclusive in-game items.

Le Sserafim Comes to Overwatch 2

The K-pop group is set to release a music video for a new single titled "Perfect Night" on October 26, 9 p.m. PDT. The collaboration also extends to the release of Le Sserafim-inspired game mode, and exclusive in-game items such as Legendary hero skins.

Blizzard also shared that more details will be revealed by October 30 and the items will be live in-game by November 1. Aside from that, the girl group will also make a special performance at BlizzCon this coming November 4 at the BlizzCon Arena. Fans can get their ticket via BlizzCon's official site.

K-pop and Gaming Community Come Together

This is not the first collaboration between a gaming company and a popular K-pop group. For years, several K-pop groups have made an appearance in games.

In 2018, Riot Games collaborated with (G)I-DLE members Miyeon and Soyeon as part of the K/DA. Their performance was used to promote the League of Legends World Championship. Meanwhile, PUBG Battlegrounds invited BlackPink and released various exclusive content as part of the partnership.

The collaboration between Overwatch 2 and Le Sserafim marked the game's first-ever in-game musical artist collaboration. "Like the heroes of Overwatch, the Le Sserafim members are amazing as individuals, but unstoppable when they come together," Overwatch general manager Walter Kong wrote.
