Lastly, if you play 27 games, you get a Legendary Dusk Reaper Skin.

There are even more opportunities to unlock rewards during this event.

In order to be eligible for these rewards, you have to link your Battle.net account to your Twitch account. You can link your accounts at the Twitch Connections page.

By watching two hours of Overwatch gameplay on Twitch, you will receive the Grim Calling Spray. If you watch two more hours, you can get the Crusader and Calculating Sprays. For watching two more hours of gameplay, you will acquire the Resurrection, Death and Deceit, and Code of Violence Sprays.

There is also a new Overwatch short story that is affiliated with the event: "Code of Violence" by Brandon Easton. This short story focuses on the aftermath of the demolished Overwatch Swiss headquarters. Following this, Gabriel Reyes sets off on a Talon mission with Sombra, an operative counterpart. It focuses on how Reyes has become the Reaper and the impact that it has on him.
