D.Va’s mech is as agile as it is powerful – its two fusion cannons mow down everything with fully automatic fire at short range. Thanks to its boosters, D.Va can leave enemies and obstacles behind, while the defensive matrix disables enemy projectiles.

“I PLAY TO WIN.”
D.Va is a former professional gamer who uses her skills to defend her homeland as the pilot of a state-of-the-art mech.
Twenty years ago, South Korea was attacked by a gigantic Omnic behemoth that rose from the depths of the East China Sea. The huge, lumbering construct caused catastrophic damage to coastal cities before being driven back into the water. In response, the South Korean government developed a mechanized armored drone unit called MEKA to protect residential areas from future clashes with the Omnic threat.
The government’s fears seemed justified when a disturbing pattern emerged in the attacks. Every few years, the behemoth rose from the sea to attack South Korea and its neighbors. The Omnic learned from these clashes and reconfigured itself in a different form, only to reemerge with new weapons and capabilities. Neither side managed to prevail definitively in any of these incidents. Each time, the behemoth was defeated but not destroyed.
The Omnic continued to adapt and eventually destroyed MEKA’s drone control network, forcing the military to man the mechs. In a desperate search for suitable candidates, the government turned to the country’s professional gamers, who had the reflexes and instincts necessary to control the mechs’ advanced weapons systems. Famous top players were enlisted, including reigning world champion Hana Song, also known as “D.Va.” Famous for her superior skill, D.Va was a ruthless opponent, determined to win by any means necessary and had a well-deserved reputation for showing no mercy to her opponents.
D.Va looks at her new task like a game. She fearlessly plunges into battle with the rest of her MEKA unit – ready to defend her nation at any time. Lately, she has started sharing her combat missions with her loyal fans via stream, and her growing fan base has made her a worldwide idol.
OVERWATCH HEROES
Heroes are the main element in the game Overwatch, as the player can freely choose between them and their class and later play them.
In Overwatch you’ll find a variety of heroes: from the time-traveling adventurer to the armored, rocket-hammer-wielding warrior to the meditating robot monk. Each of the heroes plays differently, so mastering their abilities will only unlock their full potential. No two heroes are alike.
In Overwatch you can expect an international team of powerful heroes, each of whom has made a name for himself in his own way.
OVERWATCH
Overwatch is a team-based 6vs6 shooter that was released on May 24, 2016. Overwatch stays true to the true style of Blizzard’s previous titles. It was developed by Jeff Kaplan and is considered a “new concept” shooter in the FPS genre. The game was officially unveiled at BlizzCon along with 12 heroes on November 7, 2014.
The story of Overwatch is set on a highly fictionalized future version of Earth. In a time where humans and robots, which are called Omnics, live together (Chris Metzen hinted that the story deals with this very robot race). 30 years before the time when Overwatch takes place, the so-called “Omnic Crisis ” occurred. The robots, once helpers of humans, rebelled against their creators for reasons as yet unknown and triggered a worldwide chaos. Faced with the imminent destruction of human civilization, the best soldiers of all nations came together to form a program called “Overwatch”.
Their job was to protect the world from the Omnics, which they succeeded in doing. For the next 25 years, they were the protectors of the planet, united in an international coalition. Some agents stayed, some were replaced, but at some point something changed: the Overwatch disintegrated. However, 5 years later after this event, incidents with Omnics are again accumulating, a worldwide terrorist organization also seems interested in destabilizing the world order. A new crisis is looming. At this point, your career as an Overwatch agent begins.
