Well-rounded Blizzard fans will soon see some familiar-yet-slightly-off additions toWorld of Warcraft. A parodied version of theOverwatchcrew is crossing over for a limited time.
Blizzard is set to bring The Brawler’s Guild back toWorld of Warcraft, which is a one-person arena challenge mode. During the wave-based battles, players will encounterOverwatchcharacters that they have to fight against. Blizzard has cleverly dubbed this “Ogrewatch.”
World of WarcraftsiteWowheadhas datamined the event and found that sevenOverwatchcharacters are confirmed thus far. They’ll appear inWorld of Warcraftas Hudson (Wintson), Dupree (McCree), Stuffshrew (Junkrat), Blinker (Tracer), Boargut (Roadhog), Render (Reaper), and Steingardt (Reinhardt). Some of them can be seen in the video that’s embedded below.
Ogrewatch will be added as part ofWorld of Warcraft‘s 7.1.5 update. The patch is currently live on Blizzard’s Public Test Realm, but it’s not yet fully released. Blizzard hasn’t said when it’ll be available for everyone, but within the first couple weeks of January seems to be a good bet.
