Persona 5 Meets Overwatch 2: Stylish Chaos Unleashed

The core of this epic crossover is, of course, the skins. Blizzard handpicked five Overwatch 2 heroes to embody the spirit of the Phantom Thieves. Some choices were spot-on, while others sparked some lively debate among fans.

Here’s the official lineup of who’s who in this stylish heist:

• Wuyang as Joker: The charismatic leader of the Phantom Thieves finds his match in Wuyang. Decked out in Joker’s signature dark trench coat and rocking that unmistakable hairstyle, Wuyang has never looked cooler.
• Mercy as Panther: Ann Takamaki’s fiery personality is perfectly captured by Mercy. This skin features Panther’s sleek red bodysuit, a mysterious cat mask, and even rose accents on her wings. It’s a look that says, “I can save you, but I can also steal your heart.”
• D.Va as Queen: The brilliant strategist Makoto Niijima gets a high-tech upgrade with D.Va. She sports the Queen’s sleek black-and-blue suit, while her mech receives a stunning, sparkling silver redesign. It’s the perfect blend of brains and brawn.
• Lifeweaver as Fox: Yusuke Kitagawa’s artistic flair is handed to Lifeweaver. This skin features Fox’s iconic red-and-white kitsune mask and a stylish blue-and-white outfit. Some fans argued this should have gone to Genji, but Lifeweaver brings a unique elegance to the artist thief.
• Genji as Skull: The hot-headed Ryuji Sakamoto is embodied by none other than Genji. With Skull’s platinum blonde hair and edgy leather jacket, the cyber-ninja looks ready to cause some serious trouble.

Overwatch Persona Release Date & How Long You Have

Mark your calendars! The Overwatch 2 x Persona 5 collaboration officially went live on Tuesday, September 16, 2025. It dropped with the Season 18 mid-season patch, so if you haven’t logged in yet, what are you waiting for?

But don’t procrastinate! This is a limited-time event. The Phantom Thieves will be sneaking out of the Overwatch universe on September 30, 2025. You have just two weeks to grab these legendary cosmetics before they disappear back into the Metaverse.

How Much Does the Persona Collab Cost?

Let’s get down to brass tacks. Looking this good isn’t cheap. The collaboration skins are premium items, and you’ll need Overwatch Coins to snag them.

Here’s the price breakdown:

• Individual Skins: If you just want one specific skin, you can purchase it from the Hero Gallery for 1,900 Overwatch Coins.
• Character Bundles: For the true fans, each hero has their own bundle. For 2,800 Overwatch Coins, you get the legendary skin, a highlight intro, a victory pose, unique voice lines, and sprays.
• The Phantom Thieves Mega Bundle: If you’re all in and want absolutely everything, this is the bundle for you. For 6,900 Overwatch Coins, you unlock all five hero bundles, for a total of 41 cosmetic items. It’s the ultimate collector’s pack.

And for those of us on a budget, don’t worry! Blizzard included some freebies. You can unlock a Morgana-themed weapon charm, spray, name card, and player icon by completing a few in-game challenges.

Will There Be a Second Persona Collab?

While the first wave of skins is incredible, it left fans wanting more. What about the other Phantom Thieves? The community is already buzzing with ideas for a potential part two. Characters like Sombra (as the hacker Oracle) or even Wrecking Ball (as Morgana) seem like no-brainers.

For now, Blizzard is staying quiet. But given the massive hype and success of this event, a second heist doesn’t seem out of the question. Let’s just hope we don’t have to wait too long to see the rest of the Phantom Thieves join the fight.
