Overwatch has dozens of amazing and inventive skins for its colorful cast of characters, but this year's Summer Games event has some of the best (and funniest) skins yet.

The Olympics-themed Summer Games event kicks off today and runs through Aug. 29, bringing back the soccer-esque Lúcio Ball game and new cosmetics like skins and sprays. Some of the skins are related to the Summer Games, but some are just summery, like Soldier: 76's Hawaiian BBQ get-up.

Here are the amazing new skins available during this year's Summer Games event:

CARD ID: 248312

All of these skins and other Summer Games cosmetics will have a chance of dropping out of loot boxes collected during the Summer Games event. If you missed any cosmetics from last year's Summer Games event, there will be a chance to grab some of those goodies too.

You can also purchase Summer Games cosmetics during the event with in-game currency.
