Overwatch 2's various animated shorts have cemented some of the series' most iconic moments, and a fantastic piece of fan artwork inspired by the upcoming Mirrorwatch event puts a spin on one particularly memorable moment between Tracer and Widowmaker. Season 10 of Overwatch 2 has proven to be a big one for the game, bringing with it a new hero, some widely-requested changes to the battle pass, and a plethora of awesome new skins which see heroes become villains.
Many of these skins have gone down well with fans, with heroes such as Reinhardt, Brigitte, and Tracer getting their own alternate universe counterparts that are complete with their own Talon outfits, while some of the series' more antagonistic characters, namely Widowmaker, Sombra, and Doomfist, instead become Overwatch agents complete with their own uniforms. Players have pointed out some neat details included with these new Overwatch 2 skins too, and while many of them are available through the premium battle pass, it seems the others to come will need to be obtained through other means.
Fans have shared plenty of their own artwork with the arrival of these Mirrorwatch cosmetics, though one piece of fan art has quickly racked up a ton of attention online. This piece, created by breikka on Twitter, highlights the moment from the official Overwatch cinematic «Alive» where Tracer pins down Widowmaker on the rooftop after the assassin kills the Omnic preacher and Shambali leader, Mondatta. This artwork, however, depicts what this scene might look like in the Mirrorwatch universe, where Widowmaker instead becomes an Overwatch agent and Tracer, now an operative of the Talon organization, becomes the one who murdered the Omnic monk.
Many fans have suggested that Ramattra would take the place of Mondatta in this alternate universe, with Mondatta instead becoming the Omnic to form Null Sector and launch a brutal campaign against humanity. Not every skin introduced this season is based on the Overwatch and Talon organizations either, as some characters, such as Genji and Symmetra, instead sport Junker skins, suggesting that they either originated from or somehow ended up in Junkertown in this timeline.
Though the skins themselves both look great while also posing an interesting alternate reality concept,Overwatch 2's Mirrorwatch event will allow players to enjoy a limited-time mode that will overhaul certain maps along with the abilities of a select few heroes. This event will go live on April 23, and will continue through to May 13.

Though he has only recently joined the fight in Overwatch 2, Mauga is a hero that fans had been aware of for years prior to his appearance as a playable character, and some of his early concepts still have the potential to appear in the game as skins for the Samoan tank hero. Though Mauga still hasn't got all that many cosmetics available to him in Overwatch 2 due to his relatively recent addition to the game, many fans feel this is all the more reason Blizzard should consider giving him some new outfits based on the character's popular early concepts.
A piece of artwork in the Halo subreddit from a user named ToastyGhostey, titled «WARTHOG RUN,» has sparked discussions among fellow fans due to its resemblance to a classic Star Wars show.

Gamers all over the world will likely recognize the cake from Minecraft, and while they're certainly not the first to do it, one fan of the game has brought the game's cake to life by baking it in the real world. Minecraft's cake is just one example of the dozens upon dozens of food options available to survival mode players, though it stands out as a food item that can be placed as a block in the world — making it just as useful a decorative item to spruce up a home as it is a method of keeping the hunger bar full.
Minecraft is packed with awesome things to discover, but a clip shared by a member of the community highlights their encounter with what seems to be an unidentified flying object, at least at first glance. Even after more than a decade since the game's official release, fans of Minecraft continue to stumble upon and document interesting and often extremely rare occurrences in the game, ranging from the discoveries of extremely small or rare biomes to procedurally generated structures spawning in bizarre, unexpected locations.

Following the introduction of a whole new currency to Overwatch 2 with the release of its tenth season, one fan of the game shares an odd bug which causes a spray item to cost Mythic Prisms rather than credits, resulting in the usually inexpensive cosmetic item surpassing the cost of an entire Mythic skin. Overwatch 2's new Mythic Prism currency allows players to purchase any of the Mythic skins introduced to the game so far, and can be obtained from the premium battle pass as well as via optional microtransactions.
One imaginative Pokemon fan has created an interesting convergent design for Sudowoodo that gives the plant-mimicking Rock-type a more insectoid form. Every new generation of Pokemon adds new creatures to the franchise’s line-up, and later games would introduce variants for ones that already exist. Pokemon Sun and Moon introduced the concept of convergent Pokemon, alternate versions of certain monsters that live in a particular environment. For example, Wigglet is a relative of the popular Generation One critter Digglet that lives near sandy beaches instead of dirt-filled fields.
