Overwatch 2: Rarest and Unique Skins 2022 (some lines changed)

Overwatch has had its fair share of unique skins since pre-order. But the value and rarity of these skins is unknown to new players who have recently joined the OW2 trend. There are skins that are so rare that accounts or redemption codes with these skins are selling on eBay for over $800. But all that has changed since Blizzard added phone number authentication to OW2 accounts. In addition, many skins have become unavailable. Therefore, to help you find all these skins in one place, we have collected data and ranked them on this page. So here is our list of all the best, rarest and most unique skins you can get for Overwatch 2 in 2022.

Accounts or redemption codes with rare Overwatch skins are selling on eBay for over $800.

The best part of Overwatch was the loot boxes. This was an easy way to get access to 363 skins as 211 skins had to be collected in different ways. Loot boxes have now been removed from Overwatch 2, making the previously available skin more rare compared to what it used to be. Also note that due to the color change of the Los Angeles Valiant, San Francisco Shock, and Florida Mayhem, 186 skins are no longer for sale in the game. So if you want to know how much your fun account is worth, sites like playerauctions.com will let you calculate how much all of your skins and golden weapons might be worth.

Some skins (including those from the list above) were given out to players at various events. For example, Overwatch Anniversary Remix: Vol. 2 had some skins that used to be considered rare.

The previous rare skin is now available in the store/packs (paid)

The following Origins Edition skins (formerly “Very Rare”) have been removed from the above table as they are included in the Overwatch 2: Watchpoint Pack:

Prior to the OW2 Watchpoint Pack, Officer D.Va’s skin was very rare among the 50 million OW community.

Why are Pink and Alien the rarest skins in the game?

Yes, the Pink Mercy skin and Alien Dawn skins are the rarest and most unique skins you’ll ever see in Overwatch 2. Pink Mercy is no longer available for purchase because the BCRF Charity Event she participated in, no longer exists. Players can receive a charity-themed unlock during a short event that allows them to donate to charity. Players can purchase the Pink Mercy skin for $14.99. The focus of the event quickly shifted to this skin. Prior to the release of Overwatch 2, paying for in-game skins was unheard of. But many players have paid for this skin mainly for said charity.

The alien skin for Zarya is also no longer purchasable. This skin was created by former Overwatch League MVP Jay Won, also known as “Sinatraa”. This happened because Jay “Sinatraa”Vaughn, a former Overwatch League MVP who worked on cosmetics, was implicated in a serious allegation. On June 16, 2020, the Overwatch League unveiled this celebratory in-game skin in recognition of its 2019 MVP award. However, in March 2021, after complaints surfaced, OWL refunded the skin and removed the MVP and OWL Championship badges from the skin. You can get more information about assertions in the Wikipedia article linked to. More information on the charges and the Alien skin is available on this related Wikipedia page.

Overwatch 2 Skins that change lines

The new customizable Mythic Cyber ​​Demon Genji skin (one of the best skins in the game) has many new voice lines. So I skipped the OW2 Season 1 Premium Battle Pass, here’s a post by u/Proto_VI showing off the unique voice lines in this skin (don’t forget to click “unmute”in the video below):

Now for the rest of the heroes, here are all the Overwatch 2 skins that change lines:
