Discover the story behind one of Overwatch’s biggest rivalries in our third animated short: Dragons.

The animation is set to air on PlayOverwatch.com at 10:00am PST /1:00pm EST on  Monday, May 16.

Overwatch launches on May 24 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.  An Overwatch: Origins Edition is available to pre-purchase which will net you the game plus five exclusive Origin Edition skins on top of other digital goods for all of Blizzard’s games.
