Hero Skins are Cosmetics in Predecessor that affect the hero's appearance when playing within the game. These cosmetics can range from simple texture recolours to full scale model and visual effect changes.
Currently, Hero skins can be purchased with Platinum
. Sometimes skins may be subject to discount or part of bundles with other cosmetic items such as sprays and profile icons.
Whilst many of these hero skins can be purchased, there are many which may not be currently purchased, and instead are either achieved through in game events or rewards during early access seasons. All cosmetic skins are shown on each hero's page, found here: Heroes.
Every hero skin has a tier allotted to it, depending on which tier the skin has - this will affect how much the cosmetic changes the hero.
