There’s more than meets the eye in Overwatch 2’s new TRANSFORMERS collaboration, featuring four new skins: Reinhardt as Optimus Prime, Ramattra as Megatron, Bastion as Bumblebee, and Illari as Arcee. The designs of the AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS skins are as immersive as they are intricate. “One of the aspects I love about this skin are the windshield wipers,” says Blizzard Korea Studio’s Bobby Kim. “The technical artist did a remarkable job of bringing my vision to life. The skin is also filled with other mechanical parts that move which add a touch of realism. I can’t wait for our players to put this skin on and charge into battle, experiencing these fun little features.” Overwatch 2 is no stranger to successful crossover events—the blockbuster game also partnered with Porsche, Cowboy Bebop, and more to create imaginative, immersive skins. The event ends on July 22—log in and roll out!

Another example of the gaming industry stepping up for accessibility 👏 This menu feature from Activision's Inclusive Game Design team is a game-changer and truly helps to make gaming better for everyone.
The Inclusive Game Design Team weaves advocacy, best practices, and innovation throughout each game. The goal of Inclusive Game Design initiatives is to bring a diverse, welcoming, and inclusive gaming experience for all. Our team supported the studios to create a tagging system for Call of Duty which categorizes different types of accessibility options based on the type of accommodation a player might need: Vision, Audition, Motor and Cognition. Inclusive Game Design is a key component to the journey our organization is on to embed equity and inclusion throughout our business and the work this team does is an excellent example of how we drive ourselves and each other to deliver what’s best for our players. 🎮

"What I thought I wanted when I got in the game industry and what ultimately made me happiest are very different things, and I wouldn't have learned that if I hadn’t kind of tried on different hats along the way." Everyone’s journey in the gaming industry is different, and it’s worth exploring opportunities, even those that weren’t part of the original plan. Just ask Susan Kath, Executive Producer at Zenimax Online Studios. Check out the entire discussion with Susan in the latest Open World Dialogue from Women in Games International (WIGI):
Selecting a character is a fundamental step for some games and can be daunting. Which character is the best? Which one has the best stats? Which one is the best for this stage? 😰 These questions and fears can also be similar to what you face in a professional setting. 💼 Which role is the best for me? What role do I play in this project? What role can make me the most successful? In this Open World Dialogue session, we’ll be speaking to Susan Kath, Executive Producer at ZeniMax Online Studios, about embracing different roles throughout your career. And just like in-game, you must be flexible and adapt to your environment to succeed! 💪 About our speaker: With over nearly three decades in the games industry, Susan Kath has garnered extensive experience in a wide range of roles spanning Marketing, Development, and Production on game titles ranging from casual to award-winning AAA projects for studios large and small. During 11 years with ZeniMax/Bethesda Softworks, she produced several titles, including Prey, for Arkane Studios before joining ZeniMax Online Studios where she is now Executive Producer for Elder Scrolls Online.
