Two talented Overwatch 2 fans cosplayed as Junkrat and Roadhog and shared the result online. The cosplay drew attention for its impressive fidelity to detail, and for having two real-life friends portraying one of the most unexpected duos in Overwatch 2.

One of Overwatch 2's damage heroes, Junkrat has an obsession with explosives and loves to cause chaos and destruction wherever he goes. One day, he meets Roadhog, one of Overwatch 2's tanks, with whom he strikes a deal and agrees to be his bodyguard. An alliance is born between the two, who attack the Junker Queen several times until they are exiled from Junkertown. Junkrat and Roadhog are an unlikely friendship in the Overwatch 2 universe, making them the ideal theme for two fans to bring the iconic duo to life.

Reddit user Daddy-T_2525 teamed up with his friend to cosplay as Junkrat and Roadhog, achieving an impressive result. The cosplay depicts the friends in the standard outfits worn by the two Overwatch 2 characters, with Junkrat and Roadhog interacting in different situations. The sequence of photos also shows a real version of the motorcycle used by Junkrat and Roadhog. According to the OP revealed in the comments, the bike is functional, and "carries the two of them around."

Overwatch 2 Cosplay Brings Junkrat and Roadhog to Life

The Junkrat and Roadhog cosplay caught the attention of other players for its good humor and faithfulness to detail, such as the two friends having the same body type as the Overwatch 2 characters. Some of the highlights include the tattoo Roadhog has on his belly, the pants with the same design, and a version of the original shotgun carried by Roadhog on his back. The Junkrat cosplay, on the other hand, received positive reactions from other Overwatch 2 fans because of the funny faces like the character's. It also stands out for details such as the wheel on his back, which Junkrat uses in his ultimate, and the versions of the prostheses that the character uses because he has lost his right arm and leg.

Other Overwatch 2 players have praised the cosplay, which shows the endless creativity of the community. In addition to sharing new ideas for the shooter such as skin concepts and other game features, Overwatch 2 players often dress up as their favorite heroes. There's no shortage of impressive examples besides the one shared by Daddy-T_2525, such as an incredibly detailed Reinhardt cosplay.
