You could fit what I know about Overwatch onto the back of a postage stamp, but I enjoyed this new trailer quite a bit. It's cartoony, over the top, and inherently funny, reminding me of the good old days of Team Fortress 2. (You know, before Valve Father Ted-ed the game into the boggling mess it is today.) There will be 21 at launch, and the game's director isn't sure how Blizzard is going to handle adding more afterwards. But I like what's in there already a hell of a lot—the hardest part is going to be narrowing them down into a handful of mains.

The awkward Overwatch leaks continue, with a leaked poster pointing to a 'Spring 2016' release for Blizzard's colourful squad shooter. If you check out the fine print at the bottom, the game is expected to release "on or before June 21, 2016". That's no surprise really – the game is in beta at the moment – but the poster only serves to raise more questions: what pricing model is Blizzard planning? My guess is that it'll have a base rate, like Counter-Strike, supplemented by in-game transactions. The poster (leaked via NeoGAF) promises a 'Noire Widowmaker Skin' at launch with purchase of a boxed copy, which confirms skins will be available. The poster also confirms PS4 and Xbox One editions. These boxed editions are priced at US$60 according to Andy's report earlier today, and at that price point it's tempting to believe Overwatch won't be free-to-play at all. Alternatively, the game will be free-to-play, and these boxes will come bundled with in-game currency and the client. Again, this is all speculation, and for all we know someone mocked this poster up to troll us all. Whatever the case, we'll find out for sure at Blizzcon, which is happening right about now Source http://www.pcgamer.com/overwatch-will-release-in-june-2016-leaked-poster-reveals/
