    Great showcase of 3d animation and short term storytelling
    The overwatch shorts are at the point of writing this review 10 3d shorts detailing the background of characters in the game overwatch. The game itself does not provide a detailed information about its characters so these shorts are there to provide these especially for new characters. And for this purpose i have to say they are pretty incredible. Pretty much anybody will connect to at least one of these with the powerfull short term storytelling and incredible animation and music. The only negative points i have is that only the shorts together dont add up to much of an intresting narritive and the game is really the glue between the different shorts. Secondly the shorts are pretty kid-friendly which gives of at some points a fake, overly positive and cringe feelings at times.

    But despite of these negative points the shorts are pretty great and a mustwatch if you play the game.
