Blizzard Entertainment is all set to add characters from the action game Stellar Blade developed by Shift Up to Overwatch. Such collaboration gives rise to cosmetic skins that might change the visual appeal of the renowned hero shooter game. This might seem a jarring experience for the player base which loves the standard Overwatch visuals.
Shift Up confirms crossover with Blizzard's hero shooter featuring Eve and Tachy skins
This collaboration is aptly named 'Overwatch x EVE Protocol.' EVE Protocol is the last main mission in the game Stellar Blade. This is very much a part of the story of Stellar Blade. Shift Up has not disclosed specific details on the content of this collaboration but we can speculate it from the storyline of the game.
Blizzard is going to drop themed cosmetic items with characters from Stellar Blade. The content will probably contain Eve, Tachy, Lily, and Adam's skins. These cosmetics will give you a look at how provocative Stellar Blade is compared to the usual look of Overwatch characters.
Some players are curious if these characters are suitable for the Overwatch world. As user SnakeSorcerer mentioned, it's difficult to picture such sexy characters in the Blizzard game. Players are worried about it because the previous collaborations with NieR: Automata in Overwatch were criticized by the player base in terms of quality.
There is no specific date mentioned when Overwatch x EVE Protocol collaboration will commence. Shift Up and Blizzard have not revealed when the collaboration will actually happen and what exactly it will contain. We reported about the latest update in Stellar Blade where it was majorly about balance and stability. But with this new collaboration, we are going to see some visual crossovers.
