Whats up with the Overwatch pink sausages and onions?
Posted On: May 10, 2023

One of the many sprays available in-game shows a pink sausage holding a leek, and is commonly seen with his turnip-onion baby, seen here:.


All of the sprays in game, for every hero either references something that can be attributed to that hero or references another part of Blizzard's story. For example, there is a boy spray that shows a young kid with his arm in a cast out, and this references the Overwatch museum cinematic.


However, I swear I've seen this before somewhere but this pink sausage is driving me nuts. What reference is Blizzard making with this and the onion baby?

Answer:

It may look familiar for a few reasons-.


It is elsewhere in the game, such as the arcade in Hanamura:.


And these characters are inspired by Taiko no Tatsujin:.
