The next Overwatch 2 collaboration features rising K-pop stars Le Sserafim and their new music video for “Perfect Night.” The music video debuts on Oct. 27, 2023, at midnight Eastern time, and Le Sserafim is coming to Overwatch 2 shortly after as well.

“We’re extremely excited to be working with Le Sserafim for our game’s first musical artist collaboration,” Walter Kong, Overwatch general manager, said in a statement. “Like the heroes of Overwatch, the Le Sserafim members are amazing as individuals, but unstoppable when they come together.”

On Nov. 1, Blizzard will add a Le Sserafim-themed game mode to Overwatch 2’s Arcade section and a set of Le Sserafim hero skins to the multiplayer game‘s shop. Blizzard didn’t give any indication as to which heroes are getting the new skins, but promised more information on Oct. 30, 2023, after the music video’s debut.

Le Sserafim will also appear at 2023’s BlizzCon event and perform “Perfect Night:”

The Le Sserafim collab is Overwatch 2’s first musical venture and only its second collaboration event since launching in October 2022. Blizzard ran a crossover with the popular anime One Punch Man in March 2023 with skins for Doomfist, Kiriko, Genji, and Solider 76 and a bit of new Overwatch lore – all the heroes are anime fans. There’s a fair few heroes who haven’t gotten many new skins this year, so hopefully we’ll see some new threads for the likes of Bastion, Mei, Zarya, and Sombra.

Since these are unique event skins, bear in mind that, like with the Lilith-Moira skin, you’ll probably have to pay for them with real money instead of Overwatch coins
