Overwatch 2 Announces Season 19: Haunted Masquerade

Overwatch 2 has reveraled the latest season coming this month, as Season 19: Haunted Masquerade brings Halloween back to the game

Blizzard Entertainment dropped new details about the next season of Overwatch 2, as Halloween comes back in Season 19: Haunted Masquerade. Many of the old-school events from the season will return, including the ever-popular but challenging Junkenstein's Revenge, as well as new events and modes to take part in, and new cosmetics. Enjoy the trailer and info here as the season launches on October 14, 2025.

Overwatch 2 – Season 19: Haunted Masquerade

It's spooky time! The Haunted Masquerade is Season 19's costumed centerpiece. Teams can don the mystical masks of each other's Heroes, each granting buffs that can flip the fight for friends or foes in these fun new compositions. You'll have the chance to dress up as any actively allied Heroes and acquire special abilities based on whose mask you wear in the spectral spectacle. But here's the real trick: some masks grant special benefits when paired with specific lore-linked Heroes, pulling from iconic Overwatch moments like Reinhardt and Brigitte bracing their shields together. That means some masks are more than power or plays, they're a chance to catch a glimpse of your Heroes' stories and channel their bonds for the win. Experiment with a visaged variety in these frightful festivities, as creativity and synergy set the tone to twisted fun for this new haunted Halloween mode!
