Overwatch Review

By Rishi Alwani (May 26, 2016)
  • Good
  • Varied heroes.
  • Stellar moment to moment gameplay.
  • Emphasis on teamwork.
  • Promise of extended support and free content.
  • Bad
  • Iffy matchmaking on Xbox One.

As we established in our preview piece, Overwatch is fun game to play. There's a lot of variety with 21 characters to choose from and more to be added later. While there's definite value to be had with an ever expanding roster, each of the 21 heroes present highlights what Blizzard gets right. Overwatch's moment to moment gameplay is simply outstanding.
