“THE UNIVERSE DOESN’T CARE IF IT MAKES SENSE TO YOU OR NOT.”

A failed experiment gave brilliant astrophysicist Dr. Siebren de Kuiper power over gravity and changed his life forever. Now Talon is manipulating him for their own purposes.

De Kuiper was considered a pioneer in his field. His life’s goal was to find a way to harness the power of gravity. He was known among colleagues not only for groundbreaking research, but also for his eccentric personality. He conducted most of his work in his laboratory in The Hague. When the goal was within reach, he began his most important experiment on an international space station.

But something went wrong and a black hole was created for a short time. De Kuiper was exposed to its forces only for a moment, but he still suffered severe psychological damage. Strange gravity fluctuations began to occur around him, which were related to his reactions. He had to be evacuated on the spot.

Upon his return to Earth, De Kuiper was quarantined in a secret government facility. Because of his confused talk about the patterns of the universe, the psychological damage he suffered, and the gravity anomalies that occurred in his presence, he was deemed a security risk and held for years under the code name “Sigma.” Isolated and unable to control his powers, De Kuiper retreated into his own world. He thought he would never see the outside world again.

When Talon learned of De Kuiper’s existence, they infiltrated the facility and freed him. They wanted to use his genius and research for their own plans. Under their supervision, De Kuiper slowly gained control of his powers. Now gravity is subject to his will and he is closer than ever to his life’s goal. But the experiment had not only expanded his mind, it had also broken it, and he found it difficult to keep the fragments together.

Hoping to unlock the secrets of the universe, De Kuiper works to further develop his powers. He has no idea that Talon is only using both him and his research.

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.
