Despite the fact that its team-based shooter Overwatch takes place in some kind of shiny futuristic world, Blizzard has still found room to stick a Warcraft-style dwarf in it, trademark beard and all.
Swedish engineer Torbjörn is the guy with the turrets, a defensive wall who can hold an area of the map, dish out free armour, and pop people’s heads with his handy rivet gun. Blizzard has released another lengthy gameplay video showing him in action.
Torbjörn’s Ultimate Ability is ‘Molten Core’, which sees him overheat his portable forge backpack, gaining a significant amount of amour and scrap with which to upgrade his turrets. While in this mode he attacks, builds and repairs objects much faster than normal.
You can find more information on Torbjörn’s fellow heroes over on the [url-http://us.battle.net/overwatch/en/]Overwatch site[/url]. We still don’t have a release date for the game, but you can sign up for the closed beta planned for this Fall over on Battle.net.
