Gear up for the future — literally — as Blizzard reveals Sojourn’s new look with Season 18’s Mysthic-tier cosmetic evolution. Blizzard has officially taken the wraps off the next Mythic skin arriving in Overwatch 2 Season 18, and it’s a technological marvel. The Ultraviolet Sentinel skin transforms Sojourn into a cybernetic superhero straight out of a neon-drenched sci-fi epic — and it’s dropping when the new season launches on August 26.
Ultraviolet Sentinel: Sojourn’s next-level glow-up
Each Overwatch 2 season delivers a new Mythic skin for a different hero, with Season 17 previously spotlighting Horang D.Va. Now, it’s Sojourn’s turn to lead the charge into the cyber-futuristic fray.
The new Ultraviolet Sentinel skin reimagines Sojourn as a beacon from “a fallen future without heroes,” where she harnesses high-tech “cyber-light” tech to inspire others in the fight. This fresh take fuses sleek armor plating with illuminated neon pulse lines, casting Sojourn as a shining champion in Overwatch 2’s ever-expanding mythos.
Sprinkled with custom visual and sound effects, the skin doesn’t just change how Sojourn looks: it transforms how she feels in the heat of battle. It’s a superhero moment with every slide, and it’s available exclusively in the Mythic Shop.
Mythic Tiers, Custom Colours, and Exclusive Flair
Like other Mythic skins in Overwatch 2, Ultraviolet Sentinel Sojourn comes with a slew of customisation options unlocked across four tiers. These include multiple sets of armor that progressively get more intricate — think more tech, more lights, more style.
Once you unlock each tier, you’ll gain access to:
- Four evolving armor sets with enhanced visual layers
- Three hairstyle variations
- Three distinct colorways:
- Default: White, pink, and blue
- Warm: Pink, gray, and maroon
- Midnight: Black and red
If that’s not enough, players can snag exclusive Gilded and Iridescent Aspects to further glam up this shining stormrunner. But just know you’ll need to unlock all the skin’s tiers before these Mythic Aspects become available.
How to get Ultraviolet Sentinel Sojourn
Ultraviolet Sentinel will be featured as Season 18’s Mythic Skin and sold through the Mythic Shop. Here’s how pricing breaks down:
- Base skin unlock: 50 Mythic Prisms
- Each tier upgrade (3 total): 10 Mythic Prisms per tier
- Optional Gilded/Iridescent Aspects: 20 Mythic Prisms each
Yep: that’s 80 Mythic Prisms total to unlock the full suite of customisations, with extras setting you back a bit more.
Remember: Mythic Prisms can be earned as rewards through the Premium Battle Pass or purchased directly. So whether you’re grinding or swiping, the path to cyber-light supremacy is wide open come August 26.
More than just a skin: Season 18 brings new life
While Sojourn’s Mythic look is the headlining act, don’t overlook what else awaits. Wuyang, the incoming aquatic-themed Support hero, is also set to make waves in Overwatch 2 Season 18. Fans will get a taste of his playstyle during a Trial Weekend on August 14, just ahead of the season’s full launch.
So if you’re hyped about shaking up the meta, this update might have more than just fresh cosmetics in store. Expect Blizzard to officially reveal Wuyang’s full abilities very soon.
Ultraviolet Sentinel Sojourn lands August 26. Ready to shine?
