Blizzard is aware Overwatch fans are tired of seeing its fanciest skins go to the same heroes and it's 'the number one' thing it's working to fix next
Lucio hasn't been forgotten, don't worry.
Blizzard is aware that Overwatch fans are frustrated with the same fancy skins going to the same heroes repeatedly. With over 40 heroes in the game, each with a dedicated fan base, it's challenging for Blizzard to please everyone when it comes to skin releases. However, recent skins have fans feeling that the company is favoring certain heroes, particularly those that already have multiple skins.
Heroes like Kiriko and Genji have received numerous Mythic skins, while other heroes are left with minimal offerings. The team has started to drop Mythic skins for heroes who already possess them, leading to disappointment among fans who have waited years for their favorite heroes to receive their first skin. Mythic skins, which cost around $70, are the most expensive in the game, with only two releasing per season.
This has led to increased frustration as fans notice certain heroes receiving more Mythic skins than others. Blizzard's art director, Dion Rogers, assured fans that the team is aware of the feedback and plans to address the issue. He stated that the team will strive to spread Mythic skins more evenly in the future, considering it the top priority for their conceptualization.
While a wider variety of Mythic skins may not be seen for several months, this news brings hope to fans who have been eagerly awaiting more diverse offerings.
