That Overwatch is not only suitable for shooters is demonstrated by this video. A beat ’em up would also be convincing.
2D fighting games like Tekken or Dead or Alive have been popular on consoles for decades. It is not surprising that fans of other genres also wish that their characters would be adapted into a fighting game.
The YouTube channel TGN has taken the heroes of Overwatch and created a video that makes it look like the characters are part of a classic fighting game.
This video also answers once and for all who the better tank is – namely Reinhardt. With only one health point remaining, he hammers Zarya into the next life. But the “rivalry” between Genji and Doomfist is also humorously depicted in this clip.
Would you like to see more genres in the Overwatch universe? If it won’t be a fighting game, what genre would you wish for instead?
This kind of fighting game idea has already been suggested for Sombra in Street Fighter V.
