Soldiers. Scientists. Ad-
venturers. Weirdos.
In the times of global cri-
sis international group of
heroes was united to re-
cover peace of the world
destroyed by war. Team
helped to end the crisis
and kept the peace for
many decades, but after
many years, the influence
of Overwatch was falling
and, in the end, ruined.
Overwatch is gone, but
world still needs its heroes.
Overwatch it the new up-
coming multiplayer game
by Blizzard Entertainment.
It was announced in 2014.
Visitors of Blizzcon were
able to play it first and beta
version was launched 27. Oc-
tober 2015. Planned date of
launching was 21. june 2016.
Overwatch is game which, by
words of creators, everyone
should enjoy. Main stage is
earth after sixty years, when
humanity is in touch with
robots. Creators are offering
huge variety of 21 unique
heroes from adventurer, who
is travelling through time,
to armored warrior, who is
fighting with hammer, or to
robo-monk.

Heroes are divided into
offensive, defensive, tank
and supportive. Every hero
fights differently and mas-
tering their skills is the key
to reveal their potencial. No
hero is the same. Whether
you are destroying ene-
mies in the first line, giving
defensive shield with your
energetic shield, or en-
couraging your teammates
by boosting their attacks,
every skill is designed to
be the perfect part of the
team. Maps are divided into
Payload (King‘s Row, Num-
bani, Dorado, Hollywood),
where one of the team is
trying to deliver the load at
time to the selected place
and second team is preven-
ting them, and Point capture
(Temple of Anubis, Hana-
mura, Volskaya industries)
where you need to collect
points from the map. It is 6
vs.6 players. Some maps are
inspired by reality, such as
Hanamura – Japanese.
To get a better idea about
the game I decided to choo-
se two heroes, who I will in-
troduce to you more detaily,
because they aren’t just cha-
racters you are playing for,
but they also have their own
story.
