Since its launch, Overwatch has been one of the most popular gaming franchises in history. The game has won over the hearts and minds of over 35 million players since its launch in 2016, and it continues to grow. It’s inspired a wave of short-form movies, with a full-length one coming soon. It’s been turned into comics and books that have helped flesh out the world and its characters. It’s been cosplayed by numerous fans, and those fans in return have given the game a new look from time to time.
One fan actually made a map for the game that was so impressive that Blizzard actually contacted them and are going to put the map into the title. Personally, we’re hoping another fan design gets approved by Blizzard. For Youtube TGN has turned Overwatch…into a fighting game. And it’s pretty darn awesome.
No, we mean it, it’s really awesome, check out the video via the link above.
The best part about this idea is that it’s completely sound. I mean, there have been other franchises that didn’t start out as a fighting game and yet got turned into one. That’s exactly how Super Smash Bros was born, it wasn’t meant to be real, or a success, and yet it is now. So, why couldn’t Overwatch make the jump?
After all, it has 26 very unique characters, which as the “trailer” above proves can have very unique moves in the fighting game style. And this was just one fan making things, imagine the whole team from Blizzard doing it?
That’s not to say that TGN’s video wasn’t impressive, because it most certainly is. They did everything right, even designing what the arcade form of the game would look like. They did intros, sound clips, and even included creative director Jeff Kaplan into the mix. They went all out, and now we want Blizzard to do the same to make this real.
I like super smash bros. Many people think that this game is hard to play because there are no controllers. That’s very simple, read this article and follow it to configure your controller and continue playing it: https://unblockedgames247.tumblr.com/
