"Overwatch" Summer Games event is here again and players are very excited to see all the new content Blizzard released. The latest update is huge and not only does it bring one of the favorite game modes in Lucioball, but it also adds a lot of amazing cosmetic items. Players finally have a chance to get their hands on new emotes, skins, victory poses and sprays.
Last year, Blizzard released some great cosmetic items during the event, but this year it might be even better. The game developer put in a lot of work in this event and it will definitely pay off.
Summer Games is one of the favorite events for players and there is no doubt that "Overwatch" fans will enjoy participating in it once again.
Without further ado, here are the new emotes, victory poses, sprays and highlight intros the newest "Overwatch" update brings.
Emotes
Summer Games event brings only one emote this year, but it's very cool. Like many other cosmetic items in this update, it is beach-themed. The emote features Ana playing on the beach with a ball.

Victory Poses
Once again, Blizzard is giving up victory poses with heroes holding gold medals. Seven characters will have these victory poses: Bastion, Hanzo, Junkrat, Mercy, Sombra, Symmetra and Tracer.
While these victory poses look awesome, you will have to defeat your opponent in order to see them on the post-match screen, so make sure you bring your A game and show off your new pose!
Below, you can see an image of all characters with their new victory poses as well as separate images of each of them.

Sprays
This year's event will include eight new sprays and five of them will be related to Lucioball mode.
In case you don't already know, Lucioball will have a competitive mode this year and players will be able to gain rating and competitive points in this arcade mode.
The other three sprays are related to three characters that have been released after last year's Summer Games event: Sombra, Orisa and Doomfist.
It is also important to note that non-Lucioball sprays can be bought for 75 credits each.
However, three sprays have to be unlocked through achievements and one has to be unlocked by completing 10 competitive matches in Lucioball.
