Overwatch 2 Valentine’s Day event details, date, and dating sim

Blizzard is going all in on Valentine’s Day for Overwatch 2 this year, launching an official (but not officially canon) Overwatch dating sim and a new limited-time game mode that’s all Hanzo, all the time. Love of Geometry PvP mode brings back the classic Hanzo abilities from the original. Overwatch– The randomly fatal Scatter Arrow.

Love of Geometry will pit two teams of four Hanzos against each other — all wearing the game’s new Cupid skin — in a team deathmatch battle. Hanzo’s Storm Arrow ability is replaced by Scatter Arrow in Love of Geometry, letting the bowman fire an arrow that bounces, splits, and ricochets for potential multikills. Blizzard also teases that players are in for a surprise when they use Hanzo’s Dragonstrike ultimate ability in Love of Geometry.

Blizzard removed Hanzo’s Scatter Arrow ability in 2018, following complaints that the ability felt unfair and unsatisfying (if you were on the receiving end of it), and replaced it with Storm Arrow. Blizzard briefly brought back a version of Scatter Arrow in 2021, as part of an Experimental Mode patch timed to April Fool’s Day.

Players who find themselves enamored by Hanzo’s Cupid skin in Love of Geometry can acquire it permanently through Overwatch 2’s in-game shop. Blizzard notes that Cupid Hanzo features “heart designs in the quiver and shoes, integrates tech art for his wings to flutter as he lunges through the air, adds heart VFX to every arrow shot, and includes a ton of fun sound effects.”

Cupid hanzo can be a great option for overwatchers. LoverwatchThis is the text-based dating simulator that allows you to win Mercy or Genji. This dating sim can be played in desktop browsers through February 28, 2008.
