This week, Overwatch 2 announced their collaboration with L.A. Lakers' PG Luka Doncic for Season 18. During this season, players can earn exclusive Luka rewards as they play the upgraded Stadium mode. The tweet shows a picture of Doncic and Overwatch 2 hero Cassidy side-by-side, showing the resemblance between the two players.
This isn't the first time Doncic has shared his love for the Free-to-play title. Back in May of 2024, the former Dallas Maverick revealed that he reached a top 500 ranking as a tank player in the game. Crazy to think that he was able to balance the NBA Finals along with his passion for gaming.
The Mavericks traded Doncic to the Lakers last season. But a change of location hasn't taken away Doncic's love for both Basketball and Overwatch.
Overwatch Season 2 dropped today, bringing a ton of new improvements to the game. It adds a brand new progression system which fully streamlines the system for both new and veteran players. It also adds a new support hero, Wuyang, as well as an update to Quick Play Queue.
Season 18 also brings a big evolution to the game's Stadium Mode. For newcomers, this mode pins two teams of five against each other in a best-of-seven series. However, unlike other modes, you upgrade your hero throughout the course of the match. You earn Stadium Cash based on your performance, which you can spend in the Armory.
For Season 18, Tracer, Winston, Brigitte, and Pharah join the Stadium rotation. Furthermore, Season 18 adds new mythic skins, an update to Perks, and much more for players to dive into.
Meanwhile, Doncic is gearing up for his first full season with the L.A. Lakers. Last year, the team saw a quick First Round exit after losing to the Timberwolves in 5. Perhaps the potential MVP candidate can channel his inner cowboy as he hopes to lead the Lakers to glory
