The battle plan has been laid out. Conflict is inevitable—the only question is which side you’ll support. So gear up, pick a side, and earn fan-tactic rewards, because Overwatch 2 is joining the legendary world of G.I. Joe in a limited-time collaboration. From July 1 to July 14, you’ll have to answer the call: join the G.I. Joe elite or cooperate with the ruthless Cobra organization and watch the world burn as heroes and villains clash.

Fight for Freedom or Strike for Chaos

This mission comes equipped with style and firepower. Legendary looks straight from the G.I. Joe arsenal bring iconic characters into Overwatch 2’s battlegrounds. Whether you’re advancing through enemy lines with precision or plotting world domination from the shadows, these operatives have your cover—or might betray you.

• Pharah as Scarlett: G.I. Joe’s extraordinary spy. Sharpminded with tactical precision and firepower. Crossbow master. Action-ready. Strategic genius with a devastating hook.
• Widowmaker as Baroness: Striking for Cobra with brains, bullets, and betrayals. A lethal femme fatale. Cold, calculating, always in control, and impeccably dressed.

• Doomfist as Destro: Not just Cobra’s muscle, but a metal-clad genius fueled by profit, power, and pure strength. Combatant. A steel-clad threat. Built to punch.
