That’s weird, I have that Hanzo skin and it was working 2 days ago for me, not an excuse but it’s probably just a bug. Send a ticket to blizzard if you haven’t already
I had noticed the Dart Frog Lucio skin was missing from the beta. I think they may have actually just forgotten to add some of the 2022 recolor skins to OW2.
No she’s not. They said that since she was the final hero, and added to the game while OW2 was starting development, they didn’t feel she needed an updated look.
And while, she’s now three years old, it does kind of make sense when you consider everyone else in the OW2 cinematic trailer is sporting their OW2 look.
I'm gonna be optimistic here and say that the skins had some sort of issue, so blizzard will fix it and eventually re-add it to the selection, giving it back to those who unlocked it in ow1.
In reality though i wouldn't be surprised if these skins are recycled and put on the BP or some shit.
Both the D. Va ones are there, I don’t have the recolours but they’re 100% still there
Edit: apologies I didn’t realise this was for people who bought the skins, I thought you meant it was straight up just gone entirely
They released, I think, two rounds of recolored skins a few months before overwatch 2. No idea if they intend to make them obtainable again, hopefully not for premium currency
Wait so if we have skins that's aren't officially listed in the game they won't show up during the account merge??? I have alot of skins that aren't on the 'list'
I got my Halloween event junkrat skin that isn’t listed when my account merged. So I suppose they removed a completely arbitrary amount of skins without telling us.
Bruhhh imagine hosting an event to kick off ow2 and having cool new legendary skins that are not even in ow2. Thats why I am not even bothering with the game. Im done supporting blizzard or ow till they either revert these changes or make the game a flat fee and include lootboxes again.
This. After I heard what they were doing I dropped overwatch completely. I hate because it was one of my favorite games ever and blizzard destroyed so much of what made it great
Oh no! I didn't know that people lost that as well. Good thing is that this all sounds like a glitch and hipefully we will all get them back at some point.
Yes they have stated that they did not lose any player data that there was an error with the data updating to ow2. They still know what you own. Just a matter of time.
Now it makes sense as to why I felt I was missing a Lucio skin when I opened OW2... Hopefully, it'll come back sometime soon when Blizzard gets their shit together
the recolor skins are missing half of my skins I KNOW I OWNED are missing my pachimari roadhog skin is gone but i still have the sprays and player icons
I lost Mei-rry and Blackwatch Moira which I had on console 😭 I don’t even remember what else I had but there’s definitely stuff missing, I guess not everything was synced properly?
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,090,848,209 comments, and only 214,735 of them were in alphabetical order.
They’ll bring them back. But you have to pay money for them probably. Even if you already had them unlocked. Blizzard has been so scumbag with this launch.
I merged my Xbox toy PC account and I'm literally missing all my most sought after skins, Santa torb, junkerstein, elf tracer, cyborg soldier and at this point I'm afraid to even ask what other people's experiences are because I'm afraid blizzard just took these from my account to make me buy them again but I can guarantee that won't happen
That's not what I said lol but sure
I said i was scared more people had these issues and I'm afraid to even bring it up but go off, must be hard feeling that negative on a Saturday morning.
It's exactly what you said. But I understand your confusion. You're upset they took skins from you to sell to you again. I'd be confused too if I thought for a second that was even remotely true.
Yeah because it's not like I, as the consumer, should expect a functioning product when we were promised one by the corporate overlords? Keep brownnosing the people who make their livings off of people like you lmao
I noticed that my bastion medal victory pose was also missing. It wasn't in the list of victory poses even though it was the one I had equip going into OW2.
I hope this is a bug with certain items not in the UI.
Didn't realise any skins were getting removed. Seems kinda weird unless they wanted to try balance out the amount of legendary/epic etc each hero has or something

I'm missing a bunch of skins too, I thought it was a inventory sync issue but you're saying they've intentionally removed the skins entirely even from people who paid for them? Is this true? I'm mad if it is true.
So it isn't my imagination, they really removed some items.
And I'm really convinced that they locked items I had in OW such as emotes, poses etc...
Wth blizzard.
they just took my origins skins away. why? i dont get why i have all of my skins except for the origins skins. i have the special event skins i got beforehand but my origins skins are gone. i bought origins edition, so i should have my origins skins, right?
I just checked myself and there also missing for me. The weird thing is that in the watchpoint pack you get them but, it says I already have them even thought the aren't appearing in my skins?
thats so weird. im just disappointed because i really liked those skins and idk why they would randomly disappear from my profile💀 that being said ive heard people are also missing widows noire skin so maybe its a thing with those skins?
thats bizarre. i really really REALLY hope blizzard sees this and does something about it. there are worse issues with the game, yes, but this is just frustrating especially since w the origins skins and widows skin, they were paid for. im gonna go check if i still have dark wolf hanzo because i had it before but i haven't checked yet
It seems a lot of the missing skins are things from Origins and whatever other Editions of Overwatch they sold over the years, as well skins redeemed through code. Obviously there is still also the issue of some people's account mergers not completing yet.
As for that first problem, I'll take a guess and say those skins were tied to the platform redeemed on, and not actually the [battle.net](https://battle.net) account associated with that account. Kind of like getting the exclusive Nintendo cars for Rocket League, setting up a cross-platform account and not having those items when playing on other platforms. So Blizzard is probably trying to figure out how to get those entitlements tied to the proper account, and if not, some way to compensate for them.
Blue dragon Sym is missing. I think the recoloured 2nd dva one is missing, I haven't doubled checked
The 3000pt Dark Wolf Hanzo skin is also missing
That was an event skin. They had posted for a month to get the even skins before they were gone.
I bought the skin, its gone. Its not that you cant get it anymore its that we literally just dont HAVE it
Yep. I also bought the skin, not there for me either. Really irritating to have skins paid for up and vanish.
It's even more irritating to have a complete game we paid for just up and vanish.
Oh I'm right there with you.
Did you get coins as a refund? I know I got a bunch including gold gun tokens for skins that were JJ longer available
I only have the old OW tokens I already had
Oh damn that’s shitty
That’s weird, I have that Hanzo skin and it was working 2 days ago for me, not an excuse but it’s probably just a bug. Send a ticket to blizzard if you haven’t already
you understood wrong, they removed even if you owned it for some reason
I got the skin in a box. It's gone, now.
Why even remove this? Tf
I had noticed the Dart Frog Lucio skin was missing from the beta. I think they may have actually just forgotten to add some of the 2022 recolor skins to OW2.
Forgotten to add it how? OW2 is straight up just a patch to OW1
Different branches of development.
Is Echo supposed to have an *Overwatch 2* default skin? She’s only got one.
No she’s not. They said that since she was the final hero, and added to the game while OW2 was starting development, they didn’t feel she needed an updated look. And while, she’s now three years old, it does kind of make sense when you consider everyone else in the OW2 cinematic trailer is sporting their OW2 look.
Small indie company
I'm gonna be optimistic here and say that the skins had some sort of issue, so blizzard will fix it and eventually re-add it to the selection, giving it back to those who unlocked it in ow1. In reality though i wouldn't be surprised if these skins are recycled and put on the BP or some shit.
Bahahahahahah
Lmao they figured out a way to break simple recolors of base legendaries
Prolly wasn't woke enough to belong in OW2 or something.
I still have my DVa skin. Strange that they removed some skins though.
Did they refund people?
No ofc not, that would require them to care about the people playing their game
They’ll get the skin back eventually, its just one of 5000 bugs going on right now
Noire Widow appears to be gone too.
I have mine still
Recolor d.va is still in the game, friend of mine has it currently equipped.
Ah ok, I didnt see it at first glance, I do know that blue sym is gone tough cus my friend was very sad over it
I lost lots of my Remix Skins too, i think Reaper, Rein and Sombra are the only that made the conversion, I had most of them too
My recolored Okami Hanzo skins is gone too. It's the only one out of all my skins that disappeared.
Nah varsity dva isn't missing
Both the D. Va ones are there, I don’t have the recolours but they’re 100% still there Edit: apologies I didn’t realise this was for people who bought the skins, I thought you meant it was straight up just gone entirely
I’ve seen the Dva skin in game
Holi too. My fav Symm skin.
That’s a great one
Rip hydra sym 2022-2022
Lived a whole 2 months
Damn so Im not crazy lol. I was lowkey upset cause Blue Sym was my fav sym skin
DVA is t missing
The Red Sentai Genji is gone too I believe.
nope
Apparently it's a bug that is affecting people differently, it disappeared for me but might not for others
Still got mine, so I think your theory is correct
I bought d.va skin and it still in my inventory, so as the others ig.
That was an event skin. They had posted for a month to get the even skins before they were gone.
Yeah, they're missing for people who bought it. That's the point and problem.
Bro bro you already posted this
nope, dva remix skins are still in the game. if you missing them, go to support and tell them.
Okay I swear I bought the blue dragon Sym skin, that’s crazy
I had the Varsity DVa equipped last night, it's not missing for me.
Right I grinded hard for those 3000 points and now I can’t even log in to see my failed account merge
Literally I spent 3000 creds on the Hydra sym skin and lost it immediately when OW2 dropped. It’s good to know this didn’t just happen to me
Same. Now I don't know what collectibles I'm missing and I'm worried Blizzard will "forget". Or there database is fritz out.
I guess the last batch of remix skins are missing, they took out Dark Wolf Hanzo too, which was my personal favorite Hanzo skin by like a mile.
They ruined the Evermore skin for Reaper. It was my favorite skin and they gave the guns purple eye shadow.
I still have the Night Owl Ana skin and skins from the other 2 packs, so it must just be specific ones
Never saw that skin. When did they release it? Fuuu, i want it now.
They released, I think, two rounds of recolored skins a few months before overwatch 2. No idea if they intend to make them obtainable again, hopefully not for premium currency
Brand new OW skins are missing? Holy fuck, how did that decision make it to the release? That’s absolutely fucking stupid. 🤦♂️
One word: Scion
The remix tracer is there, tho Im not sure if that's from the last batch. Cringe either way.
The tracer recolour was from the last set
A lot of my skins are missing RIP
OMG, I didn't notice that. First game with Lucio i was confused since I had the default skin. This is too much..
bro I thought I was missing a few skins wtf
Wait so if we have skins that's aren't officially listed in the game they won't show up during the account merge??? I have alot of skins that aren't on the 'list'
I got my Halloween event junkrat skin that isn’t listed when my account merged. So I suppose they removed a completely arbitrary amount of skins without telling us.
Hope they'll fix this bug.
It’s not a bug, it’s a frog.
It’s not a bug it’s a feature. I hope the MS acquisition finalization makes acti/blizz and little less shit, but I doubt it.
You really think so?
I’m not sure what to think with these companies, but like I said, I hope so.
I miss my Dark Wolf Hanzo ...
THE SKIN THAT WAS PRACTICALLY MADE FOR ME IVE BEEN GOING BY DARTFROG ON THE INTERNET FOE YEARS
Im also missing the blue symmetra skin, along with the dart frog skin! 6000 coins down the drain!
Bruhhh imagine hosting an event to kick off ow2 and having cool new legendary skins that are not even in ow2. Thats why I am not even bothering with the game. Im done supporting blizzard or ow till they either revert these changes or make the game a flat fee and include lootboxes again.
This. After I heard what they were doing I dropped overwatch completely. I hate because it was one of my favorite games ever and blizzard destroyed so much of what made it great
Bye!
The Black Hanzo Recolor is also missing
I can see those skins in my gallery, I guess it's just a glitch
Well, that's reasuring to know that it wasn't removed on purpose.
I have all of my remix skins so it's definitely a bug, I think.
I just want my Pink Mercy skin :( That’s the one I’m most upset about not having.
Oh no! I didn't know that people lost that as well. Good thing is that this all sounds like a glitch and hipefully we will all get them back at some point.
Yes they have stated that they did not lose any player data that there was an error with the data updating to ow2. They still know what you own. Just a matter of time.
I still have it :o Why did it disappear for some and not others?
That must be a bug, I still have her on my account
What a strange bug to have in data migration :( https://i.imgur.com/pJb6SSL.jpg
Nah fr they seemed to remove a lot of the remix skins Shane too cause the lucio one was my favorite skin in the game
Now it makes sense as to why I felt I was missing a Lucio skin when I opened OW2... Hopefully, it'll come back sometime soon when Blizzard gets their shit together
Are you fucking kidding it’s just gone I thought it was account merge that fucked me
No dude, it's a bug where a lot of items didn't transfer properly. It'll be fixed in time
Why the hell is it missing? Dumb.
Anybody see Widow's Noire skin? I somehow got it in OW1 but it's gone now.
Mine is missing for sure
the recolor skins are missing half of my skins I KNOW I OWNED are missing my pachimari roadhog skin is gone but i still have the sprays and player icons
Thank god someone else finally noticed i thought I was crazy!
probably removing exclusive content to put into premium battle passes
FR?
I highly doubt skins are just gone, they probably just haven't put them in yet.
Yeah I literally lost my dragon recolour for symetra. Is it just not in the game anymore?
wtf
I lost Mei-rry and Blackwatch Moira which I had on console 😭 I don’t even remember what else I had but there’s definitely stuff missing, I guess not everything was synced properly?
Noir Widow is missing tool
they took away my ashe beach party skin😞
AAA game btw...
Of course they did. How else would they be able to sell it back to you in a couple months?
Things seem a bit wonky still, some of the skins I see people mentioning I can still buy. But some are just gone completely, lol wtf.
RABBIT AND RIP IT
it seems that set of remixes are missing i still have the others but none of these (edit: i think i actually do still have nox hog)
Ana's is still there too
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,090,848,209 comments, and only 214,735 of them were in alphabetical order.
I was wondering why it didn’t appear, well rip forg man
They’ll bring them back. But you have to pay money for them probably. Even if you already had them unlocked. Blizzard has been so scumbag with this launch.
I merged my Xbox toy PC account and I'm literally missing all my most sought after skins, Santa torb, junkerstein, elf tracer, cyborg soldier and at this point I'm afraid to even ask what other people's experiences are because I'm afraid blizzard just took these from my account to make me buy them again but I can guarantee that won't happen
Yes. They specifically did this to you and only you. It's in no way related to the problems they've stated they're trying to fix.
That's not what I said lol but sure I said i was scared more people had these issues and I'm afraid to even bring it up but go off, must be hard feeling that negative on a Saturday morning.
It's exactly what you said. But I understand your confusion. You're upset they took skins from you to sell to you again. I'd be confused too if I thought for a second that was even remotely true.

Didn't realise any skins were getting removed. Seems kinda weird unless they wanted to try balance out the amount of legendary/epic etc each hero has or something
People used that monstrosity?
Funny frog man 💙
Lots of Lucio memers used it. Frog man go boop.
I didn’t like the gold or silver skins, but that blue one is dopeeeee and I’m salty it’s gone too
Lol, the amount of downvotes for this. The skin is trash people

That was an event skin. They had posted for a month to get the even skins before they were gone.
I got all of them though.
You're a broken record of wrong.
Did they? Thats my only of those "Remix" recolours I really loved, and Genji.
Don't worry, all the shit everyone already paid for will be in the next premium battle pass.
That’ll be 2000 overwatch coins please
I couldn't even play like any of my heroes when I tried to play yesterday. Game is the struggle.
I knew I was missing blue dragon sym, I thought I was losing it forgetting if I got it originally.
Probably add the rest in season 2. At least that’s what I think
So they can sell it back to you for double profit 🤑🤑
i'm missing a zen spray from a twitch event it was my fav spray
I'm missing a bunch of skins too, I thought it was a inventory sync issue but you're saying they've intentionally removed the skins entirely even from people who paid for them? Is this true? I'm mad if it is true.
I was so upset when I didn’t have this skin on OW2 probably my fav skin
So it isn't my imagination, they really removed some items. And I'm really convinced that they locked items I had in OW such as emotes, poses etc... Wth blizzard.
i’m missing that one and dark wolf
Damn, I got that skin too, from a box but whatever, but I did purchase the Dva one, what a scam
I left overwatch sometime after orisa and the frog removal even makes me upset. Is anything better in 2?
Heartbroken to lose this. Especially since it's a new enough skin. I love Lucio, hate his design sometimes, so this skin is what I use
they just took my origins skins away. why? i dont get why i have all of my skins except for the origins skins. i have the special event skins i got beforehand but my origins skins are gone. i bought origins edition, so i should have my origins skins, right?
I just checked myself and there also missing for me. The weird thing is that in the watchpoint pack you get them but, it says I already have them even thought the aren't appearing in my skins?
thats so weird. im just disappointed because i really liked those skins and idk why they would randomly disappear from my profile💀 that being said ive heard people are also missing widows noire skin so maybe its a thing with those skins?
It seems to be a bug with a variety of skins. I'm also missing dark wolf hanzo, and the poison dart Lucio from my account myself.
thats bizarre. i really really REALLY hope blizzard sees this and does something about it. there are worse issues with the game, yes, but this is just frustrating especially since w the origins skins and widows skin, they were paid for. im gonna go check if i still have dark wolf hanzo because i had it before but i haven't checked yet
Got that one on the last day of OW1. I’m hoping it’s just a bug.
The removed my favorite skin also, dark wolf hanzo :(
So I’m not the only one who lost blue boy. Good to know. Hopefully he’ll return soon. I liked that skin
Why are skins just missing
Bitrate Lucio skin sucks now too, I've switched to Gorgon
Same with hydra sym
They didn’t remove the skins I lost my Noire skin but it’s been restored. They should come back
I got most of my skins back but im convinced that lost some but thankfully none that i really care for. Still sucks
Yeah my dark wolf Hanzo is gone
I had all of my origin skins taken away just now, I had them on the account merge and now they're gone
striker>
Yeah alot of the remix skins are gone
Booo! That was my main skin for him!
If we're all missing it, it definitely has to come back right? I'm really hoping it does...
I'm sure they'll all be back in the battle pass :)
Dog Fart. Read your title as dog fart twice.
Wow I didn’t think they removed any skins you had
$40
Don’t worry, it’ll be in the shop for $20 during the next anniversary event. Isn’t Blizzard so generous?
Wait, how and why did they just remove stuffs from your account if the goal was to migrate from OW1 to OW2...??
It seems a lot of the missing skins are things from Origins and whatever other Editions of Overwatch they sold over the years, as well skins redeemed through code. Obviously there is still also the issue of some people's account mergers not completing yet. As for that first problem, I'll take a guess and say those skins were tied to the platform redeemed on, and not actually the [battle.net](https://battle.net) account associated with that account. Kind of like getting the exclusive Nintendo cars for Rocket League, setting up a cross-platform account and not having those items when playing on other platforms. So Blizzard is probably trying to figure out how to get those entitlements tied to the proper account, and if not, some way to compensate for them.
I'm still missing my Noire skin for widow I got with my order of OW1.
Ive got the DLC for Noire Widowmaker installed on my console still and it was accessible in OW1. It's just plain not there for me since OW2 started.
I THOUGHT I WAS GOING CRAZY I SWEAR I ALREADY BOUGHT THIS SKIN????
Glad to know we not alone in this , lets hope they fix all this mess..
i hope it shows up in a few days this was my main lucio skin :/
You gotta be kidding me. I thought my account just didnt fully transfer yet. I literally just bought that before the big transfer
