Overwatch would not be where it is without you. You’ve

pushed the payload, fought to capture the point, and
cheered your teams to victory. Whether you are a tank
main, damage one-trick, or support superstar, you’re all
heroes. Since Overwatch launched in 2016, we’ve had
over 100 million players answer the call, and we’re
celebrating this milestone with something very special.

One of our favorite memories from this history of

Overwatch is when we all came together for a great cause
and helped make a difference in the lives of those affected
by breast cancer. In May 2018, we introduced the Pink
Mercy skin, which helped raise $12.7 million USD for the
Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF).

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and

the number-one cause of cancer-related deaths in women
globally. It is BCRF’s mission to prevent and cure breast
cancer by advancing the world’s most promising research.
Thanks to all of you, the original two-week campaign
became the biggest single donation to BCRF - and still
holds that record to this day! It fueled BCRF’s Precision
Prevention Initiative (PPI) and key breakthroughs in breast
cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, and
metastasis (a.k.a. stage 4 breast cancer). Specifically, the
2018 donation helped fund researchers who advanced
promising AI tools in mammogram imaging, devised
models to better predict how aggressive breast cancers
will respond to treatment, identify drugs that could
potentially delay tumor formation, and more.

Now, to answer the call of so many of you who have been

asking for Pink Mercy in the years since, and to once again
support an incredible cause, we’re excited to announce
beginning on June 25, you can purchase the original Pink
Mercy skin for the original price of $14.99 USD, with 100%
of the purchase price (excluding any applicable platform
fees and taxes) to be donated to the Breast Cancer
Research Foundation.*

And that’s not all! We’re also giving everyone the chance
to help support this cause with a brand-new charity
cosmetic bundle, the Rose Gold Mercy bundle, also
available for purchase for a limited time starting on June
25. This bundle will be exclusively available for a limited
time for $19.99 USD, and just like Pink Mercy, 100% of the
purchase price (excluding any applicable platform fees and
taxes) will be donated to BCRF*, funding critical breast
cancer research.

The bundle includes the all-new Rose Gold hero skin, plus
the Mercy Heroic Weapon Skin—so you can show your
support on whatever Mercy skin you choose! Plus, you’ll
get three sprays, name cards, and player icons designed
by community artists Angela Ziegler (@A2Ziegler) and
Dani Ellis (@OWGrandma)

Whether you get a hold of the original Pink Mercy skin or

the Rose Gold Mercy Bundle, you’ll be helping to fuel the
research that gives people who have breast cancer longer,
healthier lives. Answer the call of this wonderful cause
from Tuesday, June 25 through Monday, July 8. Thank you
for being a part of this incredible community—together, we
are excited to once again make a difference!
