Overwatch 2 Ultimate Valentine Event: Loverwatch

The way it works is that players are presented with various dialogue options to interact with the Hero of their choosing. Throughout, players will be assisted in their efforts by Cupid Hanzo.
Each playthrough of Loverwatch should take about 30 minutes. And as we mentioned already, there is a themed POTG Highlight that players can earn by unlocking the secret ending!
Loverwatch is exclusively a web browser-based experience, so you can't play it in-game. Instead, you must visit https://www.Loverwatch.gg.
There's a lot to get into in Overwatch 2 this Valentine's Day! Grab a partner and enjoy the Overwatch 2 Ultimate Valentine festivities starting February 14, 2023.
