Blizzard Holds Funny Googly Eyes April Fools Joke in Overwatch

March 31, 2020 by Jordan Biazzo

This is a funny April Fool’s joke!

April fools is tomorrow, April 1st, and with the whole coronavirus pandemic spreading, it’s not the best time to hold April fools pranks, but Blizzard managed to nail it on the head!

If you’re playing Overwatch, you might know what I’m talking about already, but if you don’t let me fill you in. Blizzard decided to add funny googly eyes on all the characters, yes, and that includes special moves such as the giant dragon from Hanzo.

Loading screens, in-game character models, everyone has google eyes, and its super funny and kind of weird to see. But thankfully, this is a harmless April Fool’s joke where it doesn’t get us too hyped for something that is ultimately let us down.

Check out the googly eyes for Overwatch April fools joke in action down below:
