Blizzard Set to Showcase New Overwatch Content at Gamescom 2018

Blizzard have unveiled the schedule for their presentations and events at Gamescom 2018, with hints towards some new content for Overwatch making an appearance. While the developer will be showing off a lot of their titles, including World of Warcraft and Heroes of the Storm, quite a few eyes will be firmly on the Overwatch section in anticipation of what’s to come.

Last years showcase at Gamescom gave us the animated short, Rise and Shine, featuring the backstory for Mei. It also gave us a new map, Junkertown, so many are hopeful that we might see something similar at this year’s event.

There are also several mini-events set up to experience, with a Lúcioball show match between attendees and the German Overwatch World Cup team, a panel for the German voice actors of the game, as well as Pachimari machines dotted around the convention, as well as a new game called “Before Tracer Blinks”.
