“DEATH IS AMONG YOU.”
Rumors tell of a terrorist in a black robe known only as “Reaper.” His identity and motivation are a mystery, but this much is clear: wherever he goes, death is not far behind.
Reaper is an extremely unpredictable mercenary and ruthless killer responsible for terrorist attacks around the world. He has been involved in many armed conflicts over the past decades, demonstrating no loyalty to any cause or organization.
Survivors describe him as a black shadow who moves across even the most hellish battlefields completely unscathed. The few bodies recovered after his attacks were nothing but empty shells from which all life had been drained. Strikingly, their cells showed signs of catastrophic decay. It is possible that he is the product of a failed genetic experiment that drastically accelerated the decay and regeneration processes of his cells.
As they retraced his footsteps, a pattern slowly crystallized. Apparently, Reaper is hunting down former Overwatch agents and eliminating them one by one.
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.
