Overwatch is a 2016 team-based multiplayer first-person shooter game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. The game features several different game modes, principally designed around squad-based combat with two opposing teams of six players each.
Overview
Overwatch is an online team-based game generally played as a first-person shooter. Players select one of over two dozen pre-made hero characters from one of three class types: Damage heroes that deal most of the damage to attack or defend control points, Tank heroes that can absorb a large amount of damage, and Support heroes that provide healing or other buffs for their teammates.
SuperData Research estimated that Overwatch brought in more than $269 million in revenues from digital sales worldwide in May, and over $565 million in sales on personal computers along by the end of 2016, making it the highest-grossing paid game for personal computers that year. Yes, you hear right this is the paid game. You have to buy key to play the Overwatch game. But there are many websites that provide key for Overwatch at a cheap price.
Each hero has a unique skill kit, defining their intrinsic attributes like health points and running speed, their primary attacks, several active and passive skills, and an ultimate ability that can only be used after it has been charged through dealing damage to enemies and healing allies.
Players can change their hero during the course of a match, as a goal of Overwatch’s design was to encourage dynamic team compositions that adapt to the situation. The game’s genre has been described by some journalists as a “hero shooter”, due to its design around specific heroes and classes.
