It is way too scorching and humid exterior to do something associated to actual sports activities, so Overwatch‘s Summer Games 2018 event sounds beautiful. Sit down, seize an iced drink, level an industrial-scale fan at your face and shoot individuals to earn containers filled with foolish sporting-themed (or summer season lounging) gear in your gaggle of sci-fi superheroes. While nearly all of the characters are able to run a couple of area and perhaps kick/hit/shoot some balls round, it seems to be like D.Va and Ana are geared up for a season of sipping cocktails on the seashore within the trailer under. They’ve obtained the appropriate thought.
As with all earlier Summer Games occasions, foolish QPong-esque minigame Lúcioball is again, and in a brand new area. While the map ought to nonetheless be functionally similar, it’s a nicer construction to take a look at, particularly from the within. Other than that, there’s not a lot new content-wise, however in case you’re within the temper to rack up just a few extra ranges and acquire one other spherical of seasonal costumes, there’s 50 new skins, spotlight intros, emotes and sprays up for grabs.
Some of the brand new sporty skins are actually fairly beautiful, similar to Fastball Zenyatta. Everyone’s favorite robotic ascetic has discovered interior peace in Japan’s favorite sport, and it’s spectacular simply how nicely he carries the look – he’s knocked it out of the park.

D.Va’s new Waveracer outfit is fairly nice, too. Even with security tools on, it seems to be gentle and cozy for the seashore, and I dig the brand new propellers on her mecha. I feel what actually brings the entire outfit collectively, although, is the goofy and low-cost plastic heart-frame sun shades. Thumbs up.
