Known for embracing hi-tech and innovation, Gentle Monster‘s latest collaboration with multi-media franchise Overwatch 2 doesn’t exactly come as a surprise. The special gaming collaboration, entitled Overwatch 2: Invasion, has just been launched. Interestingly, the package, dubbed Gentle Tokki, offers a unique experience that transcends the boundaries between reality and the virtual gaming world. The package not only recreates the signature headgear of D. Va, one of the main protagonists and playable characters in the videogame, using Gentle Monster‘s unique style, but is also inspired by D. Va’s mobility robot Tokki. The piece features a distinctive goggle silhouette with a soft, blue-tinted colour, highlighting its structural frame. The soft case has been depicted in a mechanical design with a detachable D. Va figure on the eyewear, providing a fashionable experience that is surreal.
Mind you, each package contains an exclusive redemption code that allows users to unlock exclusive Gentle Tokki D. Va skins, and other in-game items. The skins will be available for purchase for a limited period of time on Overwatch 2. The package featuring the coveted collaboration eyewear will be exclusively gifted to lucky winners who have been selected through an online draw—to enter this unique draw you can participate via the Instagram Gentle Monster x Overwatch 2 Challenge until Wed – Aug 30 (10.59am EST / 7.59am PST). As an avid gamer you can automatically enter this exceptional draw by uploading a photo or video taken with the D. Va filter to your Instagram account and adding the event hashtags.

Publishers Note
Just to be clear – superfuture® is a design blog and not a political commentator. No surprise there. The scope of our content has always been global and borderless, however that can often mean covering projects in countries where we will not agree with the politics or actions of those countries. In a world that’s as screwed up as ever right now, the focus of our support is to those designers, architects and other creatives who aim to make the world a more liveable one – as opposed to people that try their hardest to destroy it. So if a project hits our desk and we like it based on its design credentials, we may choose to publish regardless of its location or creators nationality. superfuture® has always been inclusive and hopes for all current wars, aggression, violence, hate and extremism to end.
