As with other hero-focused limited-time events, this one offers players the chance to unlock a new skin and other cosmetics for the DPS hero.

Now that Reaper’s Code of Violence challenge is live, we can finally unlock this brand-new skin.

Reaper’s new event will run for two weeks from February 22 to March 8, 2022. During that time, players will be able to unlock a new Icon, sprays, and the exclusive Legendary Dusk Reaper skin.

Like other mini-events and weekly challenges, prizes be awarded for 9, 18, and 27 games played, with wins counting as 2 towards this total. In addition, players will also be able to earn sprays by watching Overwatch streams on Twitch.

That means in total there are nine different cosmetics that can be unlocked during the Code of Violence challenge — which we’ve listed down below:

Earn by playing OverwatchCole Cassidy Player IconPlay 9 games
Cassidy & Ana SprayPlay 18 games
Epic SkinPlay 27 games
Earn by watching Overwatch on Twitch1x SprayWatch for two hours
2x SpraysWatch for four hours
3x SpraysWatch for six hours
There are three rewards available by just playing games.

In addition to all of this new loot, there’s also a bit of new lore in the form of a short story starring Reaper and Sombra, that was released a day before the event kicked off.

The Code of Violence Challenge will also help to fill the gap between Lunar New Year and the upcoming Archives event. The latter of which usually begins in March each year.

We’ll be sure to keep you posted here with all the latest as the next Overwatch event rolls around.
