If you're a collector of Overwatch 2 merchandise and happen to be in Japan this summer, then you're in luck. This is because AMNIBUS has announced the arrival of some Overwatch 2 pop-up shops in the country. Here's everything we know about these Overwatch 2 pop-up shops so far!
Japan welcomes Overwatch 2 pop-up shop
Japanese company AMNIBUS recently announced the arrival of three Overwatch 2 pop-up shops. The first one opens in July while the final one opens up in September and runs through early October.
To hype up these shops, the official announcement also featured a brand-new promotional poster. The poster includes a lineup of Overwatch 2 heroes such as Reinhardt and D.Va as the tanks. Meanwhile, Genji, Reaper, Sombra, and Ashe get the spotlight as the chosen DPS characters. As for the support heroes, they include Zenyatta, Ana, Juno, and Brigitte.
When the Overwatch 2 community saw the post, some players such as itshinoon noticed the absence of Kiriko. This is because Kiriko is often seen as the poster girl of Overwatch 2 and a frequent recipient of new skins.
