I’d be up for it
Overwatch, the newest IP from Blizzard, looks like their biggest gamble yet. It’s not banking on an established franchise likeHearthstonedid withWarcraft, and the cast is composed of completely original characters. That’s probably why they’re not eager to bring them intoHeroes of the Stormjust yet.
According to community manager Trikslyr over at the Blizzard forums, “there will be no addition of anOverwatchhero [inHeroes of the Storm] until the game officially releases. At that point, it can become a possibility.”
It makes perfect sense. IfOverwatchcomes out and is a smash hit, you can probably expect more cross-promotion — one of Blizzard’s favorite things. As for myself, I’m hoping for more classic Blizzard characters inHeroes, like ones fromBlackthorneorRock ‘n’ Roll Racing.
