With Season 12 set to conclude on the same day, and considering the usual 8-week gap between seasons, it's speculated that Overwatch 2 Season 13 will start on October 15th. However, until the official release date is confirmed, this remains speculation, and we'll provide updates as soon as Blizzard releases more information.

Overwatch 2 Season 13 Content And More

As for Season 13 content, details on new skins or heroes are scarce. However, we do know that the "Spellbinder" theme will center around a witch-themed battle pass, so we can expect more spooky-themed cosmetics for the heroes, perfectly timed for the Halloween season.

In the short snippet shown on the YouTube premiere video (embedded below), Blizzard teases the upcoming season with glimpses of pumpkins, floating candles, bar decorations, and eerie music, hinting at a potential Halloween event. We also see nods to Junkrat's "Dr. Junkenstein" and Roadhog’s "Junkenstein's Monster" skin, suggesting the return of older Halloween-themed skins or even new ones.

Interestingly, the trailer closes with a first-person view of the camera gliding through a map, and while it’s speculative, the movement resembles Moira’s Fade ability, which could indicate she’s in line for a new or even Mythic skin.

While much of this remains speculative, once the release date is confirmed, we'll be updating this article with the latest information about Overwatch 2 Season 13 "Spellbinder." Stay tuned for the official details!
