The first Overwatch clone “Legend of Titan” now has moving images. Check out the trailer of this shameless copy here.
Heroes copied in every detail
Do you remember? A few weeks ago we reported that a pretty shameless copy of Blizzard’s hero shooter Overwatch is being developed in China. Just the name drips with mockery and scorn, as “Legend of Titan” is a clear allusion to the canceled project “Titan”, from which Overwatch (in parts) originated.
The development has obviously borne fruit, as there are now first gameplay scenes and a trailer for the title. However, the trailer is quickly being blocked by Activision here, so make sure to watch it while you can.
What was only suspected back then is now confirmed: The character design is 1:1 taken from Overwatch, along with all abilities, weapons, animations, and even the icons of the various skills are exactly copied. Those who look closely can even see that the level design has been copied exactly, only different textures have been used.
However, those who look closely also recognize some differences, which are primarily in the quality of the animations. The characters look wooden, often seem to just “slide” over the map instead of actually moving. This may also be due to the fact that the game is being developed for mobile devices and not PCs.
Mein-MMO thinks: One doesn’t really know whether to cry or laugh when looking at these images. In any case, China seems to be one of the few countries where such a shameless copy is at all possible. Therefore, fortunately, the chance is quite low that we will ever see this work in western territories. But at least they did not copy one thing – the counterpart to “Pharah” is a man in the game.
