Hammond turns into a demonic creature with an apparent sack over his head and pointy ears sticking out.
His mech control panel features a lit candle, which may be visible in first person view while playing Wrecking Ball.
A fan designed a Wrecking Ball skin for the Halloween event that turns Hammond into Cinderella and the mech into a chariot.
Overwatch’s Halloween Terror event begins on October 9 and runs until October 31. A number of event skins have already been revealed, including a headless Pharah and a spider Widowmaker.
