Overwatch dev blown away by incredible Zenyatta cosplay Instagram\/ofl0ra\/Blizzard EntertainmentAn Overwatch cosplayer has unveiled an impressively designed outfit for the Omnic monk hero, Zenyatta \u2013 a character rarely seen in cosplay circles. Zenyatta as a character is a unique specimen as he floats in the air while providing utility for his team through Harmony and Discord orbs, which heal allies and make enemies take 30 percent more damage. Due to the character\u2019s robotic design, not many have cosplayed as the hero, but that didn\u2019t stop Twitter user \u2018Effekted\u2019 from giving it his all and showing it off with the fandom. In a post on November 6, Effekted tweeted to the official Overwatch account writing, \u201cHey Overwatch, we are doing some cleaning and are looking for a more permanent home for our robot son.\u201d Hey @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent , we are doing some cleaning and are looking for a more permanent home for our robot son. @ofl0ra and I were wondering if you would like him? pic.twitter.com\/iZjHSCEDdQ \u2014 Effekted (@effekted_) November 6, 2020 Attached was a photo of the Zenyatta costume on display, equipped with an Orb of Destruction in his hands. The cosplayer went on to ask if the Overwatch team would want to take it off their hands. There\u2019s a twist too \u2013 he\u2019s making some adjustments that will make the outfit a prop of sorts for anyone who wants it. \u201cHe needs a special rig to be worn, but I\u2019m fixing him up to sit on his own,\u201d Effekted remarked.

The attire Zenyatta wears with the mustard yellow pants are nicely crafted and match up perfectly with the in-game version. Around his neck, the designers made sure to include all of the Orbs of Destruction too and the end result looks ripped directly from the Overwatch universe. Overwatch Community Development Leader Molly Fender even replied to the post writing, \u201cthis is so cool\u201d and included the eyes emoji. Thank you!! It was such a blast to make\/wear him! He just needs a better home \ud83e\udd7a\u2014 Flora Rune (@florarune_) November 6, 2020 To this, ofl0ra, who helped craft the cosplay responded, \u201cThank you!! It was such a blast to make\/wear him!\u201d \u201cHe just needs a better home,\u201d she added. It\u2019s unclear whether the Overwatch devs will accept the gift for their offices, but such an amazing cosplay should never be left collecting dust. Hopefully, they get their wish and someone adopts the Omnic monk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
