Overwatch 2’s newest season brings an exciting new battle pass full of cosmetics to freshen up your hero gallery. This time around, the game’s lore is in full focus for season six and the nine new battle pass skins are worth checking out.
With the focus of season six being the new Null Sector invasion story missions, many of the game’s new cosmetics are portrayals of what it would be like if certain human heroes were turned into evil Omnics, as was spoiled by photos fans posted on Reddit from Blizzard’s offices last week. Omnics are the robot species in the Overwatch universe and have a long history of rivalry with humans.
Ana is poised to receive the game’s latest Mythic skin, but you might not recognize her in this new outfit, because Blizzard has transformed the healing sniper into a terrifying robot. The Mythic skin includes three different color variations, so Ana can be reimagined as a Null Sector Omnic or a robot of a different type.
All Overwatch 2 season six battle pass skins
The season six premium battle pass has nine skins, including one Mythic skin with several different variations. If you only have the free version of the battle pass, you’ll only be able to get the skin belonging to Torbjörn.
Here are all of the skins in the Overwatch 2 season six battle pass:
- Pharah: Legendary – P-900 Warhead (level one)
- Torbjörn: Epic – Dark Iron (level 10)
- Illari: Legendary – Llama Pajamas (level 20)
- Roadhog: Epic – Cairn (level 30)
- Symmetra: S-900 Sentry (level 40)
- Zarya: Legendary – Apocalypse (level 50)
- Winston: Legendary – Lab Technician (level 60)
- Ashe: Epic – Snake Wrangler (level 70)
- Ana: Mythic – A-7000 Wargod (base level unlocked at level 41, one additional armor option at level 61, and all customizations unlocked at level 80)
Ana’s Mythic skin is broken up into several different tiers for this season’s battle pass, instead of being unlocked only at level 80. You’ll get the base Mythic skin at level 41, but you won’t be able to customize it at all. The base design of the skin features a predominantly white color with purple accents like the Null Sector Omnics.
At level 61 of the premium battle pass, you will unlock one additional armor option for the skin, but still can’t customize it fully. Finally, at level 80, the last tier of the battle pass, all of the customization options will be unlocked. The final armor, color, and weapon combine to make a much more elegant and feminine-looking Omnic that more closely resembles Ana herself.
Symmetra, Pharah, and Ana are the only heroes that are getting the complete Omnic transformation in the battle pass, but Blizzard teased a few Null Sector transformation skins that are only available in the Invasion Ultimate Bundle. The bundle includes two Omnic skins for Kiriko and Cassidy.

The Omnic skins for human heroes are likely the coolest part of the battle pass, but one other skin made its way into season 6 that Blizzard hadn’t teased before—Illari’s Llama Pajamas skin. Illari is the game’s newest hero, and this skin is an incredibly cute ode to both her personality and a less-serious design that juxtaposes the scary Omnics scattered throughout the battle pass.
This skin is a Legendary and for good reason. It completely transforms Illari’s image and gives her some comfortable, yet maybe not the most practical, clothes to head into battle with. This skin is sure to be a hit, and you’ll likely see people hoping to main the new hero prioritize getting to level 20 in the battle pass as quickly as possible.
