Five pairings anchor the collection

Project YoRHa matched Kiriko with 2B, Wuyang with 9S, Vendetta with A2, Mercy with Commander White, and Lifeweaver with Adam. The lineup spread the collaboration across multiple roles instead of concentrating every skin in one team composition.

The choices also connect through character themes. Duty, constructed identity, sacrifice, and control already run through several of the selected Overwatch heroes, giving the costumes more grounding than a surface-level color match.

The collaboration extended beyond the shop

A dedicated event hub and themed lobby ran with the collection from March 10 through March 23. Challenges added name cards, a player title, and a weapon charm, giving the crossover a progression path outside direct skin purchases.

That supporting material helped the event feel present during ordinary sessions. Even players who did not equip one of the five Legendary skins still encountered Project YoRHa through the lobby and challenge interface.
