I like Sojourn, the most recent harm hero to be added to Overwatch 2, and have been eagerly awaiting her animated quick, Calling, because it was teased over a 12 months in the past. Now that it’s right here, I’m so infatuated together with her canine, Murphy, that I barely processed any of the cool shit that occurred within the seven-minute quick.
Calling acts as a direct lead-in to Overwatch 2’s upcoming story missions, because it depicts the invasion of the artificial Null Sector forces on her hometown of Toronto. However earlier than any of that, she’s visited by legislation enforcement, who’re investigating vigilante exercise within the metropolis. On condition that Sojourn is an ex-member of the titular crew, she’s a primary suspect, although she swears up and down that she was at dwelling together with her lovely canine, Murphy.
Broadly, the quick delves into Sojourn’s function in Overwatch’s shuttering, in that she testified in opposition to the group, claiming it overpassed its authentic mission. As an Overwatch fan, it feels good to see this character lastly get her due. She’s roughly the face of the sport nowadays, however Blizzard has needed to fill in her lore fairly late with issues like this quick and a novel. However I’m sorry to say she and all of the lore was upstaged by her pet, who was residing his greatest life whereas his mother was coping with the exhausting stuff.
He’s merely just a little man making an attempt to eat human meals. Who amongst us hasn’t met a canine with such easy wants and needs whereas there’s an artificial rebellion taking place? I really like him. I’d die for him. I’ll push payloads and seize factors in his honor.
Now, you’re most likely questioning, “the place is the animated quick?” Effectively, I’d love to point out you reader, however Blizzard determined as an alternative of importing this on YouTube, they might make it solely viewable in Overwatch 2 itself. To seek out it, boot up the sport and scroll by way of the information menu on the underside proper nook of the principle menu till you see it. It’s annoying, but it surely seems to be like Sojourn’s interrogation is unique to these with the sport put in. I imply, Overwatch 2 is free-to-play, so if you wish to set up it, you may.
The quick comes only a week earlier than Overwatch 2 is getting its first story missions on August 10, which can lastly transfer the story ahead after Blizzard has been shifting it at a glacial tempo because the first sport launched in 2016. Sojourn will likely be teaming up with the following era of Overwatch, which lastly got here collectively in Overwatch 2’s announcement trailer in 2019.
If you wish to compensate for the story earlier than these missions arrive, right here’s an intensive information on all of Overwatch’s exterior media.
