What are Mythic Skins?

Like Legendary Skins, Mythic Skins in Overwatch 2 completely revamp a Hero's look, but they're also fully customisable.

Owning a Mythic Skin means you can pick and choose from a wide selection of customization options to design your ideal outfit and stand out as one-of-a-kind.

How are Mythic Skins unlocked?

Vengeance Never Dies Mercy skin in Overwatch 2

Starting with Season 10, Mythic skins can now be purchased in the Mythic Shop with Mythic Prisms. They can be acquired through the Premium Battle Pass, and doing so will take roughly the same amount of effort as the old system. Prisms can also be purchased directly from the store.

Each season, there's a new Mythic skin added to the game. Now with the new Mythic Shop, you can choose to acquire the current skin or any previous skin that is at least two seasons old.

Right now in Season 11, you can acquire the new Ashe Mythic skin, or any of the ones from seasons 1 to 8. Next season, the current Ashe skin will disappear from the store, but in its place, the skin from season 9 will be added.

This means that if you miss out on the Calamity Express skin this season, you'll have to wait until season 14 for it to become permanently available in the shop.

How much do they cost?

The base version of each of Overwatch 2's Mythic Skins costs 50 Mythic Prisms, and each of the three upgrades costs a further 10.

You can get 80 Prisms from the Premium Battle Pass, making it a viable way to get the latest skin and each of the upgrades. However, you can now choose where those Prisms are spent, so you can use them to acquire previous skins that you might have missed.

If you want to get more than one Mythic skin in a season, you'll have to purchase Mythic Prisms from the store. The prices for Mythic Prisms are as follows:

Mythic Prisms Price (in USD)
10 $9.99
50 $39.99
100 $79.99

How to customise Mythic Skins

Customising Mythic Skins in OW2

To customise a Mythic Skin in Overwatch 2, visit the Hero Gallery and select the Hero whose Mythic Skin you wish to tinker with. Next, browse their list of Skins until you locate the Mythic Skin you're searching for.

Mythic Skins feature a variety of different customisable aspects. For example, with the Cyber Demon Genji Skin, you can edit its weapon, tattoo, mask, and colour. You'll have a few distinct options to choose from in each category, and you can mix and match freely as you'd like. If you want to roll the dice, you can choose to generate a randomised getup too.

When you're happy with how your Mythic Skin looks, all you then need to do is press 'Save' to store your chosen design.
