Overwatch Would Make A Smashing Fighting Game
If you've ever dreamed of punching Hanzo all the way to space, you can now dream a little more vividly. TGN posted a painstakingly-edited video showcasing what Overwatch would look like as a fighting game and it looks pretty freaking cool. Just see for yourself below.
The little details really make it shine, like the clever uses of highlight intros, Ana's sleep dart signifying knockouts, the character selection screen (complete with stats), and the classic vehicular destruction bonus stage. Now, if there was some way to include an assist from Sub Zero for a Mei finishing move, I'd preemptively give this completely hypothetical game a 10/10.
