The World Needs Heroes!
Fight for the Future
Soldiers. Scientists. Adventurers. Oddities.
In a time of global crisis, an international task force of heroes banded together to restore peace to a war-torn world: Overwatch.
It ended the crisis and helped to maintain peace in the decades that followed, inspiring an era of exploration, innovation, and discovery. But after many years, Overwatch's influence waned, and it was eventually disbanded.
Choose a Hero
Overwatch features a wide array of unique heroes, ranging from a time-jumping adventurer, to an armored, rocket-hammer-wielding warrior, to a transcendent robot monk. Every hero plays differently, and mastering their abilities is the key to unlocking their potential. No two heroes are the same.
Play your Role
Whether you're engaging in combat on the front line, providing defensive cover with your energy shield, or supporting your allies by amplifying their damage, every hero's abilities are designed to be effective as part of a team. Learning to utilize your abilities in concert with your teammates' is the key to victory.
Team-Based Objectives
Teams of heroes do battle across the planet. From protecting the secrets of the mysterious Temple of Anubis, to safely escorting an EMP device through King's Row, the world is your battlefield.

Same. I regret buying it digitally as now can't sell it. Its just so dull and boring and I feel like I'm playing a completely different game from everyone else who praises it.

Worth noting that next weekend is "Free to try" weekend for Overwatch on all platforms, which will probably also include some discounts on purchase. Might be worth holding on if you're not sure.

This isn't the first free to play weekend the game has done. This game has held its value and I think it will continue to do so.

Fantastic game. I still play it nearly every day since launch on PS4. Great price for this. They are releasing a anniversary edition of this soon to line up with the 1 year anniversary next week. I think it only comes with a few cosmetic loot boxes extra and nothing to differentiate the games so great price for it. If unsure there is a free weekend next weekend to download and try it.

Until they release the game of the year edition soon, then this could drop further.

What would that include other than loot boxes, maps and characters are free right?

As far as I know it's just loot boxes, but they've recently increased the price of these on the Xbox store.
