Overwatch 2 fans are left confused as Season 11 ends without a single new skin for Venture, the game’s first trans non-binary hero. Venture was released in Season 10 as the 40th hero, and debuted with a modest selection of four rare skins, essentially just color swaps of the base model.
New skins, heroes, and everything coming to Overwatch 2 Season 12
Despite the appreciation for their addition to the game (as Venture is super fun to play and play against), they are still the only hero in Overwatch history without a Legendary skin at launch.
Since Venture’s gameplay and model were revealed in November 2023, players have been eagerly awaiting a Legendary skin that would bring the character in line with others on the roster. After all, every other hero introduced in the game has launched with a Legendary skin, making Venture’s absence even more puzzling. In contrast, Mauga, the 39th hero who arrived just two seasons prior, has already collected four Legendary skins, for a total of 11 alternate skins to his base skin.
As Season 12 approaches, skin announcements are once again disappointing Venture fans. The new season promises a Mythic Anubis Reaper skin inspired by the Egyptian sun god Ra, along with Legendary skins for heroes like Doomfist, Ana, Ashe, Illari, and Sigma. But for Venture? Nothing. Nadda. Zip.
