It’s been an extended day. The 24 hour hellscape that’s our present information cycle, business strikes, the sudden return of Tekwar, all of it takes its psychological toll. It’s time for some easygoing self care, and I can’t consider something I’d moderately watch tonight than the Overwatch Puppy Rumble, a Blizzard-run stay charity occasion that includes wriggly little child canines in Overwatch cosplay, and it’s beginning nearly… now.
The stream will start (on the time of writing) shortly, at 5pm EST/11pm GMT. Tune in through the official Overwatch Twitch channel and begin charging up your Ultimate D’aww’s.
In Overwatch, each canine has its day.

Inspired by the Puppybowl, a nationally televised occasion in America the place small canines reenact some well-known sporting occasion celebrating a Superb Owl, the Overwatch Puppy Rumble will probably be capping off Overwatch’s Lunar New Year celebrations. All the puppers will probably be clad in gear made specifically for them by costume and set design collective Henchmen Studios.
In addition to being cute as all heck, the cosplaying pups will probably be formally up for adoption after the present, and so they’ll be offering data on pet adoption providers in America over the course of the occasion, nearly all the time a greater choice than shopping for a farm-bred canine from a store. No phrase on whether or not the pups include their Overwatch costumes, nevertheless it’d be a missed trick (Give! Good Blizzard) in the event that they didn’t.
It’s heart-melting stuff. Who wants a Molten Core final whenever you’ve bought a room stuffed with wriggly little dogbeasts? And the perfect factor of all? Unlike a Hanzo primary, you may train a canine to remain on the target.
