Overwatch ? Game of the Year Edition Fight for the Future Overwatch is a team-based shooter where heroes do battle in a world of conflict. Welcome to Overwatch Soldiers. Scientists. Adventurers. Oddities. In a time of global crisis, an international task force of heroes banded together to restore peace to a war-torn world: OVERWATCH. It ended the crisis and helped to maintain peace in the decades that followed, inspiring an era of exploration, innovation, and discovery. But after many years, Overwatchs influence waned, and it was eventually disbanded. Overwatch is gone? but the world still needs heroes. Choose A Hero Overwatch features a wide array of unique heroes, ranging from a time-jumping adventurer, to an armored, rocket-hammer-wielding warrior, to a transcendent robot monk. Every hero plays differently, and mastering their abilities is the key to unlocking their potential. No two heroes are the same. Play Your Role Whether youre engaging in combat on the front line, providing defensive cover with your energy shield, or supporting your allies by amplifying their damage, every heros abilities are designed to be effective as part of a team. Learning to utilize your abilities in concert with your teammates is the key to victory. Team-Based Objectives Teams of heroes do battle across the planet. From protecting the secrets of the mysterious Temple of Anubis, to safely escorting an EMP device through Kings Row, the world is your battlefield. PAYLOAD - The attacking teams objective is to move the payload to a delivery point, while the defenders must halt the attackers progress until time runs out.
