Editing Skins (section)

== Rarity tiers ==
Each hero has several skins from each cosmetic rarity tier. Each rarity tier is as follows:

*{{raritylink|common}} - The base cosmetic and original appearance of a hero. Common skins are unlocked by default, and each hero has two (except for [[Echo]] and heroes added after the release of ''[[Overwatch 2]]''). 
*{{raritylink|rare}} - Rare skins are simple re-colorings of the default skin. Each hero has four Rare skins that change the primary color of the hero's default skin. Rare skins are only obtainable in the hero gallery, and will never appear in the shop.
*{{Raritylink|epic}} - Epic skins are either advanced re-colorings of the base appearance of a hero, or colorings with slight three dimensional additions. As a whole, these skins do not drastically alter the silhouette of a hero. Epic skins are obtainable by progressing through the [[Battle Pass]], completing challenges, or by purchasing them in the shop or hero gallery.
*{{Raritylink|legendary}} - Legendary Skins are skins which drastically alter the hero's silhouette, changing their weapon model, colors, and outfit. Legendary skins are obtained via challenges, progressing through the Battle Pass, purchasing them in the shop or hero gallery.
*{{Raritylink|mythic}} - Mythic skins were added in ''Overwatch 2''. They can be bought in the [[Mythic Shop]] using {{Mythic Prisms}} [[Mythic Prisms]], which can be earned through the [[Battle Pass]]. Mythic skins have varying levels of customization: the base level of customization costs {{Mythic Prisms}} 50, with further levels costing an additional {{Mythic Prisms}} 10, after reaching a set level, "gilded" variants can also be purchased for {{Mythic Prisms}}20.

{{Raritylink|legendary}} and {{Raritylink|Mythic}} skins may alter a hero's [[Voice lines|Voice Lines]].
