- Overwatch 2 developer Blizzard has announced Overwatch Genesis, a three-part anime mini-series set in the Overwatch universe.
- Based on the series' trailer, it looks like it's set in (or is at least about) the Omnic Crisis and will feature multiple characters from the game, including Ana, Reinhardt, and Torbjorn.
- The trailer also showed a new female omnic character with very human-looking eyes, possibly suggesting that she's some sort of human-omnic hybrid.
- The first part of Genesis, titled "Hope," is scheduled to become available on July 6 at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET. It will have a runtime of five minutes and 13 seconds.
