Fans Love Moira's Overwatch Retribution Blackwatch Skin

Last night during halftime of the Los Angeles Valiant and Seoul Dynasty Overwatch League match, Overwatch Director Jeff Kaplan presented the first trailer for the upcoming player versus environment (PVE) story mission Overwatch Retribution. The mission will allow the players to play as McCree, Genji, Reaper and Moira during their time as members of the shadow organziation Blackwatch. 

The trailer revealed the brand new map Rialto to the community along with showing that the Blackwatch skins for Reaper, Genji and McCree will be making a return to the game. However, a brand new skin for the support hero Moira was also revealed as Retribution will introduce her Blackwatch skin to the game, and the community is beyond excited to get their hands on the amazing looking battle suit the infamous scientist utilized during her time with the shadow organization.

Fans got their first taste of the new skin with the release of the Retribution comicbook by Blizzard that showed off Moira in her new look, and then players were able to get their first look at the skin being used in-game as the controversial scientist battled the forces of Talon in her special ops suit in the Retribution trailer. The newest support hero to be added to the game's roster is noticeably missing her eye patch with her Blackwatch skin. This either points to her having her eye injured in the Retribution mission or that her willingness to experiment on herself began to manifest after the disasterous incident

Overwatch Retribution gives players to chance to relive the Venice Incident. This mission is the first time that Blackwatch stepped into the light of the world and ultimately caused the downfall of Overwatch. It will be accompanied by the Uprising mission from last year where players were able to experience Tracer's first mission with the peacekeeping organization. Both PVE missions will be added into the game April 10th as part of the Overwatch Archives event.
