Although there are a few things still left to arrive in the current season, Season 3 of Overwatch Reign of Talon is right around the corner. Blizzard has been slowly revealing some of the additions coming to the game, including a brand-new map.
While we wait for more announcements and the season to start, here is a summary of all the information we have so far.
When Does Overwatch Reign of Talon Season 3 Start?
Overwatch Reign of Talon Season 3 is scheduled to start on Tuesday, June 16. An update will go live at 11:00 AM PT (7:00 PM BST) for all platforms to disable all the Season 2 content and add the new stuff.
The season should last between eight and nine weeks, and a significant patch should arrive in the middle to add all the content for the second half.
New Map: Neon Junction
Neon Junction is a brand-new Hybrid map set in Tokyo, Japan. This map was originally announced at the first Overwatch Spotlight presentation in February 2025, where Aaron Keller teased it by showing one of the concept arts.
Only screenshots have been revealed, but we expect to see more of the map as the start of the season gets closer.
Hero 52
Another new hero is coming to the game this season, and some details have already been confirmed. Although it hasn't been fully revealed, a leak from a few months ago already gave us a few details about Hero 52.
According to leaker Skavorah on X, this new character is Hashimoto's leader and is described as a female version of Cassidy, having a very similar weapon and simple kit. This would indicate that the hero will fall under the Damage category.
The reveal trailer for the new hero is scheduled to go live on June 9, and the thumbnail shows it will take place in the new Neon Junction map. The Japanese setting will most likely corroborate the leak as the Hashimoto is a criminal clan that operates in said Asian country.
Yoasobi Collaboration
A new collaboration with artists Yoasobi will arrive on Tuesday, June 30, at 11:00 AM PT (7:00 PM BST). The crossover will include a new short story, a new collaboration song, and a new animated music video.
In terms of in-game content, the following heroes will receive skins based on the musical duo: Kiriko, Genji, Hanzo, and more. As you can see below, the Kiriko skin has already been revealed.
A teaser for the upcoming collaboration was also released, and you can watch it in the following post:
Other Details
Here are other minor details about the upcoming season so you don't miss out on anything:
- Based on the loose information revealed at this year's Overwatch Spotlight, Illari and Mauga are expected to receive mythic skins this season, while Hanzo will receive a mythic weapon.
