Details of the event are scant for now. It kicks off on May 23 and runs into early June, but the video announcing its existence doesn't offer any hints about what kind of activities or skins fans can expect. We're told that those details will be coming closer to the event's start date.

But wait! There's more!

Blizzard will also be hosting another free weekend for Overwatchduring the anniversary event. All heroes and maps will be available in "a variety of modes," including Quick Play, Custom Games, and Weekly Brawls.

As with past free weekends, any leveling progress you make and loot you unlock will be permanently tied to your Battle.net account. So if you end up buying Overwatchat a later date, you'll get all your stuff back.
