So, Blizzard trying to pull the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners move to salvage OW2 reputation huh?

The AI omnic stuff reminds me of the Animatrix. That’s kinda neat. Not sure about the general art quality but seems interesting.

Where’s the Sojourn cinematic, like the Road Map said?

Are we still deceiving the fans Blizzard?

The description says it’s only 5 minutes long,I really wish we got a full anime like Edgerunners tho

5 minutes long?!

Bruh, thats depressing ngl.

oh i see … says run time 5 minutes long… so basically a comic book short anime. hopefully a lot of them but i get the feeling it will be one then another one WAY later. like a month or more… sigh

no wonder it wasnt mentioned in the dev blog post just now lol

Premiering in game in July. It was announced it will be added to the game at some point.

waste of players money =\

I assumed it was free on youtube on the PlayOverwatch channel; is it pay thing?

i mean blizzard is using the money players spend on microtransactions to make this videos instead of improving the game

Yeah I’m gonna be a tiny bit of a hater…it’s hard for me to be excited cause this should have been done YEARS ago lmao!

you’re right. they have always had bad managment with things outside of overwatch. an animated series a long time ago would have probably made the game fresh. over the 7 years of the game we could have had at least 2 series

still we got hero cinematics but they hardly come out and not with every new hero. we get animated shorts on most heroes… but still a story series would have been cool

Oh my God…

I highly doubt it’s that easy to pull out an anime that quickly. Not every game is trying to be Edgeruners, especially since game animes have existed in the past.

We can hate Blizzard; I just doubt pulling an anime out of their backside had a whole lot to do with anything.
