Overwatch 2: Meet Cupid Hanzo in Teaser for ‘Loverwatch’

Overwatch 2: Meet Cupid Hanzo in Teaser for ‘Loverwatch’

The third season of Overwatch had teased a Valetine’s event with Hanzo, and now we get to see his Cupid version with what Blizzard is dubbing Loverwatch: Love Never Dies.

Apparently, they’ve made a dating sim out of the characters, and we get a look at it here:

So far, the game looks like it’s only dealing with three characters, Genji, Mercy, and Hanzo, and while I suspect that it will be about the teased romance between Genji and Mercy, it looks like the characters talk to the player themselves.

There’s even a cheeky joke with Genji needing healing, which is apparently still a thing even with Overwatch 2.

Admittedly Overwatch 2 didn’t make the best transition to free-to-play with a lot of longtime fans complaining about the new Battle Pass. With the third season though, players now have a chance to earn some Overwatch Credits which will allow them to buy any cosmetics of their choosing, instead of the earlier Battle Pass that only gave players pre-determined prizes.

Original director Jeff Kaplan may not be onboard anymore, but I’m hoping that the new team behind the game manages to give Overwatch a long stay among the gaming community—or at least we finally get that animated film.

You can check out the Loverwatch sim date here.

Loverwatch is currently available for desktop browsers. Overwatch 2 is available for Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
