Overwatch 2 has kicked off its special Valentine’s Day event, inviting players to participate in an exciting array of missions and earn free cosmetic rewards. Despite Valentine’s Day being more than a week away, players can immerse themselves in early celebrations through a themed event that brings excitement to the game.
This year’s festivities are not just limited to new skins available in the shop; the developers have also introduced numerous engaging missions for players to take part in. Successfully completing these tasks will yield valuable in-game rewards that players certainly won’t want to miss out on while they’re accessible.
Event Schedule for Overwatch 2’s Valentine’s Day 2025
The Valentine’s Day event runs from February 4 to February 18, 2025. There’s some uncertainty about whether the popular Loverwatch dating simulator will make a comeback during this event, but participants can still look forward to collecting various free love-themed rewards.
Introducing the Love of Geometry Game Mode
The Valentine’s Day event also brings back one of the community’s favorite game modes, Love of Geometry. In this team-based PvP deathmatch, players will engage in action as Cupid Hanzo. This entertaining twist adds a unique layer to the challenge, as everyone on the team embodies the iconic archer.
