Overwatch
 

The closed beta for Blizzard's new game Overwatch started today. Anyone get in? I'm my account gets flagged tonight to get in.

Here's the gameplay trailer for those that haven't seen it:

Very similar to the TF2 style of FPSes.

You got in? Looking forward to trying it, haven't been flagged yet.

Doubt I'd get it. The last time I played a Blizzard game was maybe 2 years ago.

I'll play Overwatch if I get it though. :)

I usually get accepted into Blizzard betas, but I almost always ignore them so I wonder if they'll stop sending keys... I do want to check this out though, as I haven't been into an FPS in forever.

They're sending them out in waves so I guess we will all just have to wait and see

I'd play this.

I don't even have a blizzard account :lawl:

Isn't the 1st wave Closed Beta US only? I remember the technical alpha for Heroes of the Storm was only for the US the 1st year.

Gonna try to master Hanzo, his ulti looks hella OP

brb goes through walls
brb touches an enemy and they die
brb looks the coolest
brb dragons

this game looks sick ahgha, blizzard trying to take a new market with the e sports growth, hopefully players from tf2 comes over too

signed up...see if i'll get in too.

waiting for the next wave of keys to come out! signed up a long time ago so hopefully i'll get it soon.

Doesn't look like we're gonna get in lol

It's pretty much streamers and youtubers only so far... They'll probably release more and more keys as the initial hype dies down. It currently has 60K viewers on Twitch, making it the #2 most popular game being streamed.

didnt get overwatch - but signed up for battleborn and got in for that

hopefully can compare the two

yea i have the battleborn beta too, havent tried it yet though. when does overwatch beta end?

Going to be available on the PS4 and XBONE as well. Also a b2p game and not f2p. Can pre-purchase:
