Genji was one of the original heroes when Overwatch first launched. Since then he's accumulated some of the most exciting and appealing skins. Here’s a list of the best 10.
10. Sparrow
Dashing Genji
A young version of the Shimada brother. A Genji skin without his mask. Although it loses the air of mystery he more than makes up for it with his charming good looks.
- Not intimidating
- Knows how to give “the look”
- Not too much of an eyesore
Loot Box/1000 coins
9. Chrome
So shiny
The flashiest of skins not much different from the original but when you shine you don't need much change.
- So shiny
- Looks great with the his “gold gun”
- Classic design
Loot Box/750 coins

8. Nihon
Land of the rising sun
For those of you who don't know Nihon translates to Japan which for this skin feels fitting. The red and white mirrors the country's iconic flag.
- Pays homage to the culture
- Red makes everything more intimidating
- Red accents make for a cool aesthetic
Summer loot box/750 coins

7. Young Genji
Anime hair in Overwatch
Similar to Genji's Sparrow skin except now his hair is green. He'll still kill you but now he can do it with green hair and that makes it okay. Right?
- Green hair looks cool
- Clothing colors feel fitting for the character
- He’s attractive and deadly

6. Carbon Fiber
Impenetrable
Carbon Fiber is the easiest way to make a robot/android look ten times cooler. Outside of the alternate coloration nothing is different from the base skin, but it's carbon fiber so who cares?
- Classic Genji look
- Carbon FIber coloring
- Carbon Fiber coloration, unfortunately, isn't black
Loot Box/750 coins

5. Baihu
The art of the shinobi
Buff Shinobi Genji. Baidu is the Chinese constellation of the white tiger and its influences are apparent. From the white color coat to the feline shoulder pads, this skin is awesome.
- Samurai look
- Tiger Shoulder pads
- Looks like you could take anyone out without batting an eye
- Look incredibly buff/powerful
Lunar loot/1000 coins

4. Sentai
Shift into Turbo Mode!
Clearly inspired by power rangers this skin lets everyone live out the dream of their 8 year old self.
- Green Power Ranger
- Look ready to form into a supergiant robot
- Live out childhood games
Anniversary/1000 coins
See Sentai skin in action
3. All-Star
Now that's fire!
- He has a flaming sword. Is there really anything else that needs to be said
- Flaming Body
- The weapon looks awesome even without gold weapon skin
Overwatch league coins but currently unavailable

2. Blackwatch
Would you like to know how I got these scars?
The skin that had forums thirsting for weeks. Blackwatch Genji captures him when he was in the process of being converted to the cyborg ninja we all love.
- Naturally intimidating
- Actual relevance to the story of Overwatch
- Black and red color scheme
Archive/1000 coins

1. Oni
Watch out for the demon hunter
Clearly the best skin to strike fear into your enemies. Oni skin makes Genji death incarnate, changing his appearance more like a demon than that of a man.
- “The demon becomes me!”
- Spikes everywhere
- Shuriken design looks substantially different
- Intimidating
- Amazing skin design
Originally a skin exclusive to people who played Heroes for the storm but later made a standalone skin for purchase. Loot Box /1000 coins
