Overwatch Devs Reveal Oasis' New Lore And Secrets
Needless to say, we love Overwatch. While Blizzard released a quick video fly-through of its newest map Oasis, we wanted to learn more about the evolution of its design. We Skyped in Overwatch's lead writer Michael Chu and assistant game director Aaron Keller as we walked around the control map's three points to learn more about Blizzard's map design philosophy and the story team's vision of this sci-fi take on Iraq. If you enjoy this type of deep dive, let us know in the comments below!
Watch the video below to learn more about the Oasis map than you could possibly imagine.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
