With Season 12 of Overwatch 2 now having arrived, the Egyptian Mythology theme is in full swing, seen through additions such as the new Temple of Anubis Clash map rework - Throne of Anubis, and many of the new skins available for purchase both in the Overwatch Shop and to be earned through the Battle Pass.
However, if the Egyptian Mythology theme isn't for you, then there are also a series of skins with other concepts available, too - such as the Polar cosmetics, and a series of sea-themed skins. If you're wondering about which Heroes have received new cosmetics this season and how each one can be gained, then you can find all of the information you'll need in the guide below.
As with all Seasons, Overwatch 2's Season 12 features a majority of cosmetics that are involved with the seasonal theme of Egyptian Mythology. However, every season also tends to include a smaller sub-theme, or bundles consisting of some other concepts to ensure there's some variety throughout each Competitive Season. This time, this is seen in the deep sea and underwater-themed cosmetics, as well as the Polar skin series. Every skin available this season can be found below, as well as information on how they can be earned or purchased.
