All Overwatch Animated Cinematics/Shorts All Animated Shorts We’ll have our review and guides coming for you soon!ĮDIT (12:14PM): A previous draft of this article referred to Soldier 76 as “Hero 76.” It’s Monday and I’m sorry.When the Hashimoto threaten her home, the protector of Kanezaka makes a statement they won't forget. Overwatch is out May 24th on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The bad guys in particular show off a lot of that “squash and stretch” technique Blizzard’s talked about in the past. Nevertheless, if you’re an animation nerd like me and love the Disney/Pixar influences in Overwatch‘s style, the above video is definitely worth a look. Sort of a missed opportunity if you ask me! She’s understandably as terrified of Soldier 76 as the thugs he’s dispatching, as anyone would probably be in that situation, but at the end of the day, she’s not the one we’re supposed to get excited about - Soldier 76 is, and the short doesn’t do a whole lot to impart a strong impression of him. Unlike the Hanzo/Genji short, which packed an awful lot of character backstory into its scant few minutes, most of the emotional gravitas in “Hero” lies with the young girl we see in the beginning, Alejandra. At least, I assume that’s what Blizzard was going for. Newbie Overwatch players start out the game’s tutorial as grizzled stock man Soldier 76, so it makes sense that Blizzard would reserve the final slot in its lineup of animated shorts for him.
