Overwatch Winter Event is now being awaited by the long-time fans of the game. That said, rumors suggest that there are three characters that are likely to get Santa skin.
Overwatch Character #1: Torbjorn
Although this character does not have the stout physique, he appears to have a convenient mock-up for the Overwatch Winter Event. His image was reportedly tweeted by the Overwatch team in December 2014, just a month following the announcement of the game. Torbjorn's character also offers people some things that may easily be re-skinned as as wrapped-up gifts.
Overwatch Character #2: Roadhog
Roadhog may be a good pick for Santa Claus in Overwatch Winter Event due to his large belly. He has the physique and the white hair, but his mask seems to completely cover the entire Santa Claus image, specifically the signature beard. Nevertheless, the fans may get to see a jollier Roadhog in the following weeks for the Overwatch Winter Event
Overwatch Character #3: Reinhardt
While this character may have a large belly, Reinhardt is old, has white hair and an occasional jovial person. He shows enthusiasm and has the signature Santa beard, which makes him a likely candidate to get the Santa Skin for the Overwatch Winter Event. However, some fans believe that Reinhardt's Crusade Armor would make it difficult for Blizzard to navigate, regardless if it is painted in a Santa suit.
Meanwhile, Overwatch is reported to come with a new cast of characters that are bursting with personality, which is believed to one of the reasons for the game's popularity. However, latest reports indicate that the story does not seem to be given much emphasis, and that players would need to connect the dots to better understand it. Nevertheless, a theory has reportedly been figured out by a fan, linking three characters.
Overwatch has a total of 23 characters in its current roster, including Ana, who is among the newest additions. Her character was introduced as the mother of Pharah as apparent in their Egyptian-inspired tattoos.
