Hot off the heels of the Halloween Terror 2023 Event, Overwatch 2 is taking centre stage again for another special event, this time for a collaboration with the K-POP group LE SSERAFIM. OW2 Heroes have already been featured in LE SSERAFIM’s latest music video and now the game itself is set to receive its own set of K-POP-themed activities and rewards, including a bunch of stylish new Legendary Skins, a special Limited Time Mode and a bunch of event challenges to complete for exclusive rewards. With a free Legendary Junkrat Skin on offer and a lot of good vibes to go around, this is one event you’ll definitely want to tune in for.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Overwatch 2 x LE SSERAFIM Event.

Concert Clash Limited Time Mode
The LE SSERAFIM isn’t all glitz, glamour and expensive Skins as it also introduces a new Limited Time Mode to Overwatch 2 with Concert Clash. You can access this mode from the Arcade menu and it’s a remixed Capture the Flag style activity. The roster of available heroes for this Limited Time Mode is restricted to the five characters featured in the LE SSERAFIM collab, meaning that you have the choice of Brigitte, D. VA, Kiriko, Sombra or Tracer: they will also be dolled up in their crossover outfits, giving you a taste of luxury and style before you commit to the hefty price tag.
In Concert Clash, two teams of 3 battle against one another on a transformed version of Busan, which has been decked out in a bunch of LE SSERAFIM-themed decorations, in a contest of… ticket collecting. At various points in the match, a ticket machine will spawn somewhere on the map. Attacking this machine will steadily drop several tickets which players must pick up and then deposit into a special zone elsewhere on the map. Of course, the enemy team will also be gunning for those tickets and you will drop any tickets you were holding upon death, leading to a chaotic and tense showdown for admission.

Eventually, after enough time has passed, Junkrat himself will make an appearance on the field as a giant mini-boss. Defeating Fawksey James will drop a bunch of tickets as well as a Light Stick, a special item which can be deposited for a massive amount of tickets. Managing to bank the Light Stick is essentially an instant win for the team who does so but getting it back to base can be extremely difficult, as it seems like you’ll drop the Light Stick at even the slightest bit of damage.
The match concludes once one team reaches 30 tickets deposited or the timer reaches zero. Whichever team has the most tickets at that point will be crowned the winner of the Concert Clash. Concert Clash is available for the LE SSERAFIM collaboration and has many event challenges tied to it.
Anything For Tickets
LE SSERAFIM Challenges and Rewards
Similar to past Overwatch 2 Events, the LE SSERAFIM collaboration has several event challenges for players to complete. These challenges will only be available for the duration of the event and offer a host of unique cosmetics and rewards for those willing to undertake them. From something as small and simple as Battle Pass EXP to a new Name Card to even a brand new Legendary Skin, there are a bunch of sweet goodies to collect from now until November 21st. In total, there are 11 LE SSERAFIM challenges, with some being related to the LTM and others being for general play.
- Variety Show Star: Complete 8 Concrete Clash Event Challenges.
- Casual Fan: Complete 10 games. Wins grant double progress.
- Dedicated Fan: Complete 20 games. Wins grant double progress.
- Loyal Fan: Complete 30 games. Wins grant double progress.
- Superfan: Complete 40 games. Wins grant double progress.
- Ultimate Fan: Complete 50 games. Wins grant double progress.
- Showstopper: Complete 60 games. Wins grant double progress.
LE SSERAFIM Event Challenges
Outside of general play, four of the twelve available challenges are directly related to the Concert Clash Limited Time Mode. Fortunately, most of these challenges are relatively easy to complete. As such, these should be the main priority for anyone hoping to quickly score the Variety Show Star challenge.
- Clash Master: Complete 3 games of Concert Clash. Wins grant double progress.
- Light Stick Fiend: As a team, eliminate Junkrat and turn in his Light Stick in Concert Clash.
- General Admission: Eliminate 10 enemies who are carrying tickets in Concert Clash.
- Dream Team: As a team, score 500 points in Concert Clash.
If you manage to complete all 11 LE SSERAFIM Event Challenges, you’ll earn yourself 6 unique rewards. These rewards include the Bias Wrecker Title, Concert Clash Name Card, Lightstick Souvenir, Stanimari Weapon Charm and the Fawksey Pose. Additionally, you’ll get a total of 45,000 Battle Pass EXP, which equals four and a half levels on the BP.
Party Together
Free Legendary Fawksey James Junkrat Skin
Of course, a K-POP-themed event isn’t complete without a K-POP-themed welfare skin. While it isn’t the idol most people were expecting, there is a free Legendary Skin on offer in the form of the Legendary Fawksey James Junkrat Skin. Similar to the LE SSERAFIM Skins currently available in the Shop, Fawksey James gives Junkrat a much more casual look, with him sporting a sleek white outfit and beanie. It’s Junkrat at his most fabulous and flamboyant and we wouldn’t have it any other way for this event.
In order to earn the Fawksey James Skin for Junkrat, players will need to complete the Variety Show Star Event Challenge before the LE SSERAFIM Event ends on November 21st. This Challenge simply asks you to complete 8 other LE SSERAFIM Challenges, allowing you to tackle them in a variety of different ways. If you want to get this fancy Skin as quickly as possible, we recommend completing all of the easy Concert Clash Challenges first before moving on to the game completion challenges next.
Once 8 LE SSERAFIM Challenges have popped, Fawksey James will be waiting for you in your Hero Gallery. From there, simply slip Junkrat into his concert-going attire and let him loose to enjoy the concert atmosphere.

LE SSERAFIM Shop and Skins Update
The main draw and focus of the LE SSERAFIM Event in Overwatch 2 are the five brand-new collaboration skins. Brigitte, D VA, Kiriko, Sombra and Tracer all receive some flashy new K-POP-inspired threads. These outfits were already featured in the LE SSERAFIM’s “Perfect Night” music video and have the select Overwatch 2 heroines dressed up in some super stylish casual clothes.
In total, there are five new Legendary Skins for this event, all under the moniker of Antifragile:
- Antifragile Kira-Kira (Kiriko)
- Antifragile Traysi (Tracer)
- Antifragile Slay Star (Sombra)
- Antifragile BB (Brigitte)
- Antifragile Dazzle (D. VA)
If you just want the Antifragile Skins on their own, you can pick them up for your chosen Hero at the Hero Gallery for 1900 Overwatch Coins. Otherwise, you can get them in a bundle with a special LE SSERAFIM-themed Emote, Victory Pose, Name Card and Weapon Charm for 2500 Coins.

If you’re looking to score all of the LE SSERAFIM collaboration skins and are willing to fork over a bit more cash for them, you can get all five skins in the LE SSERAFIM Mega Bundle for 6800 Overwatch Coins. This bundle includes the Antifragile Skins for Brigitte, D. VA, Kiriko, Sombra and Tracer as well as the Choreography Emote and BB Pose Victory Pose for all five Heroes. You’ll also get all of the Antifragile Name Cards and the Kira-Kiramari Weapon Charm.
Currently, Overwatch 2 is holding a special promotion where select Overwatch Coin bundles will give you 50% more Coins. The bundles included in this promotion are both the 5000 Coin Bundle and the 10,000 Coin Bundle. With this promotion active, players can pay $49.99 for 7500 Coins, giving them enough to purchase the LE SSERAFIM Mega Bundle and still have 700 Coins spare.
LE SSERAFIM Shop Update
That was everything you needed to know about the Overwatch 2 and LE SSERAFIM collaboration event. The LE SSERAFIM Overwatch 2 event lasts from the 1st of November to the 21st of November. This gives you just 20 days to obtain all of the event rewards or snatch up the fabulous skins.
