First the Overwatch comic got leaked in Portugal , then the Sombra leak from Russia and now we got leaks from Japan and Taiwan. Overwatch’s leaks are as international as it’s cast of heroes.

Blizzard just accidentally released when Overwatch’s Halloween event is coming out. According to a post on a PC Bang forum , which receives information about patches ahead of launches, the next Overwatch patch should be coming out Tuesday at 2 p.m. EST. Patch 1.4.0.2.32143 will be 1.74 GB, which is gigantic, so what exactly is going to be in the patch?

For starters, we know that Overwatch’s Halloween event is dropping today which will bring new Loot Boxes and skins into everyone’s favorite character shooter- sorry Paladins. On the front page of the Taiwanese Overwatch page, a leaked image showing Roadhog in his Frankenstein image appeared out of nowhere. Before being quickly pulled, reddit detectives manages to save the image which shows the event lasting from Oct. 11 to Nov. 1 and will be called Halloween Terror.

The image was later changed to show Oct. 12, so don’t get to excited about playing as Junkenstein just yet.
