Mercy is one of the Overwatch’s many heroes and has been seen in a number of skin types and outfits over the years, but a number of fans of the Blizzard title also saw a remarkable likeness between her and Fortnite’s ‘Ark’.
The Ark cosmetic set was made available in Fortnite for the first time on January 11 and features a female character with angel wings and a pickaxe called ‘virtue’ that could easily pass as a Caduceus Staff.

The result was pretty awesome!
“I haven’t done a Fortnite mashup edit in so so long,” explained the designer. “So when I saw this new skin released by them, I thought I’d bring it back. Fortnite’s ‘Ark’ skin really gave me Mercy (from Overwatch) vibes and so I decided to turn it into both her original and devil skin.”
