Blizzard has revealed the first skin coming as part of Overwatch’s Summer Games event—and it’s an instant classic.

Lifeguard Pharah decks out everyone’s favorite flying bomber in a bathing suit, but it’s much more than that. The suit includes a life vest and those flotation devices made famous by Pamela Anderson and David Hasselhoff in Baywatch.

Pharah rocks an insanely adorable hairstyle in this outfit, too, making it a skin that everyone will be hunting for when Summer Games goes live tomorrow, Aug. 4.

Summer Games has been a mainstay in Overwatch’s rotation of events. In fact, it was the first post-launch event in the game back in the summer of 2016.

Since then, it’s returned each year with events like Lúcioball, the soccer-like game that comes with its own ranked mode. The limited-time mode will likely return again with this year’s event.

Expect more skins to be revealed in the coming hours ahead of the launch of Summer Games tomorrow.
