Overwatch has a colorful cast of characters, screen-filling special moves, and a hero named after his own punching arm, but it is not, in fact, a fighting game. Still, itâs fun to dream.
This video by TGN imagines what Overwatch would look like as a combo-based, knock-down, drag-out fighting game. The verdict? Surprisingly good, as it turns out.

The videoâs creators say it âa lot of time to make,â which makes sense, given that theyâve managed to edit in-game Overwatch footage into a seriously convincing recreation of a fighting game. Thereâs even a vehicle-punching bonus stage!
Personally, I like the part where Doomfist punches Genji into space. It gives rise to what Iâm sure will become a question for the ages: If somebody spams âI need healingâ over and over and nobodyâs around to hear them because theyâre trapped in the eternal vacuum of space like they so richly deserve to be, do they make a sound?
