Overwatch 2 K-pop collab teased by Le Sserafim comeback video

pcgamesn.com:

Overwatch 2 and K-pop seem like an easy match, and it looks like we might be getting some form of collaboration between the two soon. The new Le Sserafim comeback teaser, which heralds the return of one of the biggest K-pop groups in the world right now, features a car bearing the Overwatch logo that resembles the game’s payloads, with members from the group also discussing the game on social media ahead of the Overwatch World Cup.

With Overwatch 2 Season 7 now underway, Halloween is upon us in Blizzard’s hero-driven FPS game. Yet as we approach the Overwatch World Cup 2023, which begins Sunday, October 29, it looks as though Blizzard might have snagged themselves a potential partner for the event, courtesy of one of the top girl groups in South Korea.

For those of you not as familiar with Le Sserafim, they’re a five-member girl group who debuted in May 2022 with the single Fearless (originally briefly appearing with a sixth member, who left the group soon after its debut). They’ve since seen huge success in Korea and Japan as well as internationally, quickly rising the ranks to become one of the biggest K-pop groups around.

The release of its comeback teaser ‘Tonight, I don’t care what’s wrong or right’ on Wednesday, October 11 marks the group’s return with digital single ‘Perfect Night,’ and also includes a rather intriguing feature. The short video stars an empty pink car with glowing hover-wheels driving down an empty highway, and eagle-eyed viewers quickly spotted that the car’s badge was instantly recognizable as the Overwatch logo. Want to see it for yourself? It’s most visible around the eight second mark in the teaser video below.

This isn’t the first time the pair have overlapped – all of the Le Sserafim
