Sombra investigation Reaps A Skull Code


The hunt for more clues about Sombra has reaped something-literally a reaper (and not the hero Reaper). 5,000 Overwatch fans struggling to figure out Blizzard's puzzles has been working at it for two weeks and they finally made some progress: An ASCII skull hidden a screenshot's scrambled code.

The skull is, the Game Detectives (group of Overwatch ARG hunters) think is a sugar skull, a popular Mexican treat for the Day of the Dead celebration. Fitting for Sombra who is connected to Reaper and the Mexico-themed Dorado map. If it were a normal skull there wouldn't be spaces or dots next to its eyes. Dia de los Muertos is on November 1st and 2nd. What does all this mean? Could it possibly be that Sombra will be released in November? I hope not because that's a far ways away. On the other hand it would make sense for Blizzard not to release too much new content too fast.

With this hot new clue people are fired up and working in full force to discover even more clues. This is one of the best ARGS ever! Can't wait to read and see what people come up with. This is all pretty wacky but super fun!
