Just because the big anniversary has technically passed, doesn't mean that Blizzard has to stop celebrating.
For the recent one-year milestone, Blizzard Entertainment teamed up with international art collective ARTtitude for a project, which is now finally seeing the light of day. ARTtitude organized street artists from all across Europe to design unique console (PS4 and Xbox One) controllers based on specific Overwatch heroes. The colorful 48 controllers for the game’s 24 heroes have now been revealed, but if you’re dying to get your hands on one: good luck.
These special controllers will be given away in miscellaneous giveaways and contests all across Europe, according to Blizzard, and won’t appear on sale anywhere. The controllers are completely unique in their existence, and are even numbered accordingly. The clever themed controllers range from a vibrant lime green for Lucio, to a mixture of neon colors for Sombra.
It’s a shame they’re all so limited in quantity, because I’m really pining for that D.Va PS4 controller. You can get a sneak peak at a few of the designs below.
