In the spirit of the Olympic Games, taking place in Rio from 5 to 21 August, Blizzard appears to have a range of themed skins and DLC on the way. While no official press release has been detailed as of yet, Twitch streamer LacedUpLauren may have prematurely spilt the beans on Twitter

The streamer tweeted out an image of a package she received from Blizzard regarding Overwatch. In it, were a number of Olympic-themed items, including a faux Overwatch gold medal and images of characters like Tracer and Zarya in their national colours and athletic attire. 

There was also a card with a Rio de Janeiro arena, which is most likely the venue where the Overwatch 'Olympics' are taking place. As for whether gameplay will also include actual Olympic events, like Track & Field or Weightlifting remains to be seen. 

With the real Rio Olympics kicking off later this week, more info will likely be forthcoming.
