Blizzard has revealed everything players will get when they purchase the Overwatch 2 Rose Gold Mercy Bundle, which is being released as part of a charity campaign to help fund breast cancer research. The Overwatch series has a strong history with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and its past charity drive resulted in one of the most popular skins in the series.
In May 2018, the original Overwatch hosted a charity campaign offering the sale of a pink Mercy skin, with proceeds benefiting the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. That effort resulted in Overwatch raising about $12.7 million for breast cancer research over a period of just eight days, which is the largest single donation the charity has ever received.

The original pink Mercy skin is coming to Overwatch 2 as part of a similar charity campaign, but this time, a second package will be available that clads Mercy in an entirely new pink-themed suit and comes bundled with extras, including an exclusive heroic weapon skin. The Rose Gold Mercy Bundle will sell for $19.99, and the official Overwatch website states that 100 percent of the proceeds from purchases — excluding taxes and platform fees — will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, the United States’ largest charity dedicated to the prevention and treatment of breast cancer. That same donation rate applies to the re-release of the original pink Mercy skin, which will be available for $14.99.

In addition to the new exclusive skin which decks Mercy and her weapon out in hues of deep rose and pale pink with metallic gold accents, players who purchase the bundle will also receive three name cards, three sprays, and three icons for use in the game. Both the bundle and the original pink suit will be available beginning June 25 and will leave the game’s store on July 8. Blizzard has clarified that the Rose Gold Mercy skin will not be available as a standalone item and must be purchased as part of the bundle. This charity event overlaps with the Overwatch 2 Pride Month festivities, which include clothing sales that will benefit The Trevor Project, a suicide prevention charity that benefits the LGBTQIA community.
Breast cancer is the number one cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide, and the gaming community has taken notice. Along with the efforts put forth by Blizzard and Overwatch, Street Fighter 5 started its own breast cancer research charity effort in fall 2021, offering pink-themed outfits for Chun-Li and Ryu and donating proceeds to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
