A Word from the Art Team
The creative minds behind these skins had an absolute blast bringing them to life! Art director Dion Rogers shared how difficult it was choosing which characters would make the cut but ultimately felt that each hero brought something special.
“For Aang,” he said, “we considered other heroes too but landed on Zenyatta due to his Transcendence ability fitting well with Aang’s spirit.” And honestly? That makes total sense!
