Lúcio and D.Va from Overwatch are definitely onto something! At least the voice actor of Lúcio seems to be convinced …
When it comes to the story and lore of Overwatch, the players’ stories quickly come to life. In the numerous fan fictions of Overwatch, many questions are answered that otherwise wouldn’t have a place in the sparse space of the multiplayer shooter. Who is together with whom? Where is the spark? Who has a deep rivalry? Where is the most exciting love triangle?
These fan stories may not have much in common with the “official” lore – but if even the voice actors are playing along, there must be some truth to it, right?
Lúcio and D.Va as a new dream pairing
At least Jonny Cruz, the English voice of Lúcio seems to find the ideas appealing. His character is often associated with D.Va, as both D.Va and Lúcio are fans of each other. They could also be the perfect groupies – just for themselves. This was reinforced by new dialogues in Heroes of the Storm when the two heroes meet. But whether that really belongs to the canon is uncertain.
In a unboxing of his “Funko Pop” Lúcio figure, Cruz says that he would “ship” the two – meaning he definitely sees them in a relationship.
Blizzard is tight-lipped about the love lives of most characters. A few hints were given in the Christmas comic, but players are not much wiser in most cases.
Whether Cruz knows more than anyone else or is just hopping on the fan hype around this relationship, only he knows – and we have to guess.
What do you think of this pairing? Could Lúcio and D.Va be a good match? Or are there things in the way, such as the age difference?
