Overwatch 2 is offering players the chance to snag the Jester Sombra Epic skin, along with the Marionette spray and Marioneta emote, as Twitch Drops in celebration of Season 13. From now until October 27, fans can earn these cosmetics for free by watching up to 10 hours of any Overwatch 2 streams on Twitch.

The launch of Season 13 has introduced exciting updates, including a revamped Battle Pass, quality-of-life enhancements to the scoreboard, and various balance changes for the game’s heroes. This seasonal update also features the return of classic Halloween Terror game modes such as Junkenstein’s Revenge and Wrath of the Bride, as well as Junkenstein’s Workshop—a new PvP Team Deathmatch mode with customizable talents.

To mark the occasion, Overwatch 2 is giving away exclusive cosmetics for Sombra. Until October 27, players can earn the Jester Epic skin, typically priced at 1000 Overwatch Coins (around $10), along with the Marionette spray and Marioneta emote by watching Overwatch 2 streams. Players need to connect their Twitch and Battle.net accounts and watch any streamer in the Overwatch 2 category by October 27 at 11:58 PM PDT to unlock the following rewards:

  • 3 hours: Marionette Sombra spray
  • 6 hours: Marioneta Sombra emote
  • 10 hours: Jester Sombra Epic skin
While Overwatch 2 has previously given away many skins as Twitch drops, the choice of Jester Sombra has sparked controversy among fans. Along with General Doomfist, Jester Sombra was part of the Founder’s Pack for players who owned the original Overwatch. It was later included in the Clowning Around mega bundle in October 2023, only to be offered for free again a year later.




This has left some players feeling disappointed. Although Overwatch 2 never explicitly labeled the Founder’s Pack skins as exclusive, the decision to sell Jester Sombra and then give it away again has frustrated many players.

Adding to the controversy, Sombra recently received significant nerfs in Season 13, with her Stealth ability now linked to her weakened Translocator and Hack abilities. Nevertheless, a free skin is still a valuable opportunity, so players are encouraged to take advantage of this Twitch Drop to deck out Sombra while enjoying her updated kit.
