The official Overwatch Twitter account just confirmed that next Overwatch seasonal event – the 2018 Summer Games – drops next week bringing back the highly popular Lucioball with it.

It’s a few weeks late considering the World Cup just concluded in July but hey – better late than never right? We really don’t mind the change of pace to be honest.

You’ll get a kick out of this! ⚽

Not much was revealed but we should expect competitive/ ranked play for the mode, as well as limited-time summer-themed hero skins to be available throughout the period. I don’t know about you but don’t you think it would be awesome to see the ball replaced with the Wrecking Ball mech?

We’ll keep you updated with more info as we receive them.
