Overwatch

Overwatch is a team-based multiplayer game that heavily revolves around teamwork and team composition. the game was developed and published by blizzard entertainment.

Genre- first-person shooter





Overwatch is a great game and heavily promotes teamwork and playing as a party. the thing that keeps this game so refreshing is the selection of 22 different characters and the variety that this brings; such as combining special moves and abilities.

The one thing that could let this game down is it's complete lack of campaign mode. This limits the amount of solo play you can do in the game. Blizzard is countering this however by gradually releasing "hero shorts" for each character which gives an insight into how the hero came to be and their backgrounds.

The heroes are broken down into 4 different classes- Assault, defense, tank and support. the assault class primarily focuses on dealing high damage at a fast pace and generally has low health. the defence class generally has abilities that help defend the capture points or payloads and normally benefits the team as a whole as well as containing the snipers within the game. Tanks are high health characters that are meant to take hits for their team and have very limited range. Finally the support class contains the healers of the game, these characters can normally heal them selves and have abilities that greatly benefit their time; this comes at the cost of having very minimal damage.
