Acquiring Silhouette Icons in Overwatch 2 has become a sought-after goal for many, and recent updates have made this more accessible. We’ll guide you through obtaining these coveted cosmetics.
Customizing characters and exploring cosmetic options offers a fun diversion from the main competitive modes of Overwatch 2.
With Overwatch 2 being free-to-play, Blizzard has ensured that there are a ton of additional attire-based items to buy, and fun limited-time events that pop up from time to time continue to add even more cosmetics to the game’s vast catalog.
Icons are another fun aspect of being able to customize and uniquely kit out your player profile. A section of them, Silhouette Icons to be exact, have proven to be quite elusive, but we’ve put together a quick guide to show you what you need to do to unlock them.

It will take some time, but winning 15 games shouldn’t be too difficult, and your reward will be a special cosmetic that you at least know how to get now!
