WWE wrestler and actor John Cena has actually shared a cryptic Overwatch 2 post on social networks, leading fans to think that the partnership rumors may hold true.
Ahead of the release of Overwatch 2 Season 6: Invasion, Blizzard has actually been teasing the update by allowing a hooded figure called Enigma to “hack” into players’ video games, with lines of HTML-style code appearing on some popular banner’s livestreams, like Emongg, KarQ, and Flats (by means of PCGamesN).
A Reddit user shared a clip from one Emongg’s current streams, revealing that the code was in the typeface family “Felix-Antony’– John Cena’s middle names. There are other hints too, with a reduced URL linking to an image reading “JC” and the color code “# 042377” which equates to Cena’s birthday, April 23, 1977.
The hacking has actually been the only teaser up till John Cena himself just recently shared an Overwatch 2 screenshot from a Twitch stream on his Instagram. It does not appear to provide anything away in the beginning glance, however the image links to an authorities “Overwatch 2 dev hang” and when jumping to the 1:12:05 timestamp shown in the screenshot, the designers can be heard talking with some banners about potential crossovers and collaborations for the video game.
Blizzard has yet to officially announce the crossover, however Cena appears to have actually included credibility to the rumors with his current post, that a collaboration in between the two could be most likely. This would not be the first crossover for Overwatch 2. Previously this year, the game presented its first-ever IP cooperation event with the popular anime One-Punch Man.
Overwatch 2: Invasion is set to release on August 10 and will be adding new PvE story objectives and modes, co-op events, a brand-new map, and hero. The upgrade will probably mark the start of Season 6 too.
