BIOGRAPHY

Zenyatta, Age: 20

Occupation: Traveling guru, adventurer

Base of Operations: Shambali Monastery, Nepal (former)

Affiliation: The Shambali (formerly)

“THE TRUE SELF IS WITHOUT FORM.”

Zenyatta is an omnic monk who travels the world in search of spiritual enlightenment. It is said that an encounter with him leaves no one unchanged.

In the years following the Omnic Crisis, a group of renegade Omnic robots experienced what they described as a spiritual awakening. They abandoned their pre-programmed lives and established a communal monastery high in the Himalayan mountains. After many years of meditating on the nature of their existence, they concluded that they were more than just artificial intelligences and, just like humans, possessed a soul.

The realization that they were spiritually on par with humans led the monks, led by the mysterious robot Tekhartha Mondatta, to dedicate themselves to healing the wounds caused by the Omnic Crisis a generation earlier. Their goal was to bring man and machine back into social harmony. Their message resonated with millions all over the world, bringing them to worldwide prominence.

But one monk, Zenyatta, disagreed with this new direction. He believed that the problems between humans and omnics could not be solved through dogmatic teachings, but only through social bonds and mutual commitment.

In the end, Zenyatta followed his own path. He left the monastery and wandered out into the world to assist those he meets on his journey in their personal hardships and help them achieve inner peace. But when necessary, he is ready to fight to protect the innocent – whether Omnic or human.

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.
