Overwatch: 10 Perfect Ideas For The Christmas Event
7. Themed Weaponry
This suggestion may be a tad obvious, but the thought of having Junkrat fire explosive ball-balls from out of his cannon shows that a developer can have humour whilst retaining the qualities essential to repeat playing.
Having Pharah shoot Christmas presents out of her rocket launcher, Bastion firing candy canes out of his turret and Reaper firing coal from his shotguns could make for a very interesting and diverse landscape for war. If Blizzard wished, they could make these unlockable through loot boxes, but the humour in seeing Roadhog hog-tying characters with Christmas lights makes this holiday worth celebrating.
In having themed weaponry take centre stage during battle, there would be even more ways to celebrate the impending doom of your enemies as Play of the Game becomes a wanted accolade once more.
