Gamescom 2017: New Overwatch Short
Overwatch has revealed a new map called Junkertown, which just so happens to be the hometown of Junkrat and Roadhog. And, to commemorate the announcement, Blizzard has released a new short showing off the duo trying to get back into Junkertown…after getting booted out of it. It helps add some personality to the characters while also teasing what the whole map is about.
“Nestled in the remains of the Australian omnium, Junkertown was once “home sweet home” to everyone’s favorite criminal masterminds, Junkrat and Roadhog. Since being exiled by the Queen of Junkertown, this dangerous duo has burned, bombed, robbed, and killed their way across the world in search of one thing: TREASURE!
Now, these infamous Junkers have returned Down Under to bribe their way back into the Queen’s good graces. Will their plan work or will it all come up…explode-y?”
