The release of a premium cosmetic bundle for sprays has caused uproar among the Overwatch 2 player community. Priced at 500 Overwatch coins, the bundle includes six sprays featuring the heroes dressed in their Mirrorwatch attire and striking adorable poses. The sprays are available for Sombra, Widowmaker, Doomfist, Mercy, Brigitte, and Symmetra.
The new bundle caused frustration among numerous Overwatch players, with many voicing their opinion that the sprays should have been included in the Mirrorwatch event.
A user complained, “Oh my god…I was afraid they were going to make us complete a challenge just to get them. It’s such a joke.”

The equivalent of 500 Overwatch coins is approximately $5 USD, which means that each spray would cost players around 85 cents. While this may seem expensive to some players, it is important to note that sprays are seen as additional perks rather than the main attraction of a bundle in the Overwatch community.
“The player claimed that it is outrageous to charge for rewards that should be given for participating in events.”
“I agree, these rewards should have been free for the event. What the hell?”another person chimed in on Twitter.
As of now, the Overwatch developers have not yet made any statements regarding the potential permanence of paying for sprays.
