Overwatch Season 4, subtitled Heroes of Busan, is the fourth entry in the year-long Reign of Talon narrative, and it arrives with the most cosmetically loaded patch of the year so far. There are two Mythic-tier cosmetics, a revamped Battle Pass structure, a handful of new shop skin lines, and strong signals pointing toward a third LE SSERAFIM collaboration before the season wraps. Here's every skin confirmed so far and exactly what each one does.
What's new in the Season 4 Battle Pass?
Season 4 introduces a reworked Battle Pass that lets you choose which Legendary skin you want to chase after completing an introductory track. That's a meaningful change from the previous system, where the featured Legendary was locked to a fixed path regardless of your preferences.
The pass also adds Unvaulted Passes, which give players a second shot at rewards from select past Battle Passes. If you missed a skin from a previous season, this is the mechanic to watch.
Overwatch Season 4: All New Hero Skins
Heroes confirmed to receive skins through the Battle Pass this season:
- Moira
- Pharah
- Junker Queen
- D.Mon (the new tank hero)
- D.Va
- Brigitte
- Cassidy
The inclusion of both D.Mon and D.Va fits the Busan theme neatly, given both heroes have ties to South Korea.
What is the Season 4 Mythic hero skin?
Genji gets his second Mythic skin in Overwatch 2, called Duality of Koi. His first Mythic came at the very start of Overwatch 2, so this marks a significant return for one of the game's most popular DPS heroes.
The skin is built around the visual concept of balance, using koi fish imagery and yin-yang duality as its core aesthetic. Here's how each unlock level breaks down:
The progression from base form to the final level 4 effect, where actual koi orbit the character model, makes this one of the more visually distinct Mythics released so far. Players who want the full animated effect need to reach level 4, so budget your Prisms accordingly.

What is the Season 4 Mythic weapon skin?
Sojourn receives the season's Mythic weapon skin, named Eternal Crystal. The design pairs crystalline materials with gilded metalwork, and it evolves meaningfully across its four levels rather than just adding surface detail.
Level by level:
- Level 1: Base crystal and gold weapon form
- Level 2: The weapon reacts to eliminations. The crystalline barrel fractures, an animated orb grows and sharpens, lightning runs across the frame, and diamond-like details accumulate as your Ultimate charges
- Level 3: Two Flourish animations unlock, each featuring a dagger made from the same crystal and gilded metal. These trigger by holding down the reload button
- Level 4: Final blows produce a crystalline kill effect that visually shatters reality around defeated enemies
The level 2 reactive behavior tied to eliminations and Ultimate charge is the standout feature here. Sojourn players who land consistent shots will see the weapon change state mid-match, which adds a layer of visual feedback that standard skins don't provide.

What shop skin lines are coming this season?
Two new skin lines have been confirmed for the Season 4 shop, each with a distinct theme.
Fleece and Fangs
The theme here plays with the idea of wolves and sheep, blending both aesthetics across the roster. Heroes confirmed for this line:
- Juno
- Mercy
- Mei
- Reaper
- Hanzo
- Vendetta
Young Gods
A more mythological direction, described as gods, kings, and, somehow, a cat in a jetpack. Heroes confirmed:
- Doomfist
- Kiriko
- Jetpack Cat
- Wuyang
- Freja
Both lines are new skin families that could expand in future seasons depending on reception. The Young Gods line in particular covers several heroes who have been light on premium cosmetics recently.
Is a LE SSERAFIM collaboration happening in Season 4?
No collab skins have been officially announced as of August 10, 2026, but the evidence pointing toward a third LE SSERAFIM collaboration is hard to ignore. The K-pop group is returning to perform at BlizzCon on September 13, and the Heroes of Busan trailer ends with a brief LE SSERAFIM logo tease.
Given the South Korean seasonal theme and the group's history with Overwatch, a midseason drop of new LE SSERAFIM-inspired skins seems likely. Previous skins from earlier collaborations may also return to the shop around the same time.
How does Season 4 compare to previous seasons for cosmetics?
Season 4 is notably dense on the cosmetic side. Two Mythic-tier unlocks in a single season (one hero skin, one weapon skin) means players will need to prioritize which they pursue with their Prisms. The Battle Pass rework adds flexibility that earlier seasons lacked, and the Unvaulted Passes mechanic addresses one of the longest-standing complaints about time-limited rewards.
