Overwatch 2 and Transformers have come together for a fantastic collaboration, dressing up OW2 heroes as famous characters from the 1980s cartoon and action figure line—and it may be the game’s best collab yet.

The collab includes four legendary skins for Reinhardt, Bastion, Illari, and Ramattra, but there are also some limited-time challenges for players to complete to unlock some extra Transformers-themed rewards. But hurry up, because the event begins on July 9 and ends on July 23.

Here are all of the challenges and rewards to be unlocked as part of the OW2 x Transformers collab.

Fortunately for gamers, the challenges in OW2 x Transformers are all easy to complete: They only require playing games of OW2. The challenges will take longer depending on how many games you win or lose, but it’s all there for the taking for free.

Unfortunately for OW2 gamers, the Legendary Transformers skins can’t be earned by playing the game. They must instead be purchased in the shop as part of bundles. They’re priced at 2,500 OW Coins for individual hero bundles and 5,900 OW Coins for the Transformers Mega Bundle that includes all the skins and cosmetics.

In addition to the skins, there are also highlight intros for Bastion, Reinhardt, and Ramattra, victory poses, name cards, voice lines, and player icons for all four heroes, and a spray for Ramattra.

Either way, this collab will be difficult to top. All four skins are expertly made, but Reinhardt is easily the best out of the four. Both his character’s model and attitude fit Optimus Prime perfectly, while will likely make it a hot commodity while it’s in the store.
