Overwatch 2’s Season 19 is called Haunted Masquerade, and it introduces a fun new game mode! In this mode, you can disguise yourself as different heroes using masks. Keep reading to learn everything about the Haunted Masquerade event and how the mask system works.

Overwatch 2 Haunted Masquerade

Okay, so in Overwatch 2, they’ve got this Halloween event called Haunted Masquerade, and it’s really cool. Basically, when you spawn, you can grab a mask, and each one gives your hero a unique power. Like, if I put on Zenyatta’s mask, I get a little extra healing with this mini Orb of Harmony – it’s a nice boost!

Certain hero and mask pairings cleverly reference the game’s backstory. For example, the Reinhardt mask usually boosts armor and close-range attack power. But when Brigitte wears it, it actually makes her shields bigger!

Looking at the Season 19 trailer, artwork, future plans, and what we know about the game’s story, we also expect to see team-ups featuring Hanzo and Genji, Roadhog and Junkrat, Mei and Juno, Reaper and Moira, and Winston and Tracer.
