Following the launch of the first Overwatch 2 beta, the series has gotten a second wind, with many fans getting interested in the hero shooter once again. As such, new community memes have been getting spread, with the latest trend seeing Overwatch 2 fans talking about the grim subject of death.

Further, killing off a character would mean losing all the skins fans have unlocked for them since 2016, making their death and removal from the roster doubtful.
