The Summer Shodown kicks off the Overwatch League with an announcement that may well delight fans: the release of a new legendary model for Genji. The latter was inspired by the matsuri season, the traditional festivals in Japan. So, in order to celebrate the arrival of the end of summer, Genji dressed in proper attire to participate in the festivities.
The happi is a traditional coat worn during matsuri. On that of Genji, we can see the coat of arms of Shimada as well as their name in calligraphy. The simplicity of the outfit helps bring out the details brought to this outfit. The concept artist thought it was appropriate to make Genji wear a casual outfit to enjoy the summer parties. However, his primary goal was to give a slightly different spirit to Genji, the ninja-cyborg that we have known for years. And as much to say, it works!
How to get the Genji Happi skin?
From September 6 to November 15, the Legendary Genji Happi skin goes on sale for 200 League Tokens. This so-called classic version will be redesigned in the colors of the team that will win the Summer Shodown, like the Reaper Iuchador model or even the Knightly Angel. By paying 200 League Tokens again, you can get the second version of this skin.
This offer is free, because it will only require a little of your time. In fact, to get league tokens, all you have to do is watch the Overwatch League, remembering to link your YouTube account to your Battle.net account. Of course, if you don’t want to waste time, you can spend €9.99 to fund your account with 200 tokens.
Note that 5 League Tokens can be obtained per hour throughout the week, including during official replays. Also keep in mind that it is imperative to watch the competition on the official league channel: you can find it at this address.
