Reception

Overwatch is a masterpiece. A dizzying amalgam of unique characters, stunning style, and compellingly dynamic action.

IGN,

Overwatch is a game that I know I'm going to be playing for a long time. It's one of the most appealing, polished titles any developer — even Blizzard — has ever made. Other online games make you feel like a player. Overwatch makes you feel like a hero.

Despite only a handful of maps, no story, and no ranking system upon release, Overwatch more than makes up for all of that with its masterful focus on teamwork. The game is clearly designed with teamwork at its heart, which is a major strength, but can also lead to frustrations for any lone wolf gamers.

It's not flawless, but Overwatch is still one of the best new multiplayer shooters to arrive in years.

At $40 Overwatch is easy to grab and dive into, with Blizzard promising the first content update coming for free in June, which will introduce Competitive Play. We’re hoping for more heroes and maps to be added in over time, but as it stands Overwatch is a ton of fun to play and explore, and is only going to get better over time.
