Overwatch 2 gets My Hero academia Skins

Image
   Copytight: Overwatch and Overwatch 2 are properties of Activision-Blizzard. brevity and ethics: I have no affiliation with activison, blizzard, overwatch im just a fan. Overwatch has never been shy about dipping into cosplay territory when it comes to event skins for the cast. Remember that Cowboy Bebop event? Yeah, let’s just say it didn’t exactly ride off into the sunset with rave reviews. But this time, Blizzard’s upped the ante with skins that feel like they were created with a lot more love—and maybe a bit of fan feedback in mind. In this crossover event, some of Overwatch 2’s finest are stepping into the shoes (and quirks) of My Hero Academia characters. Space-bending Juno is channeling Uraraka’s gravity-defying charm, lightning-fast Tracer takes on the humble mantle of Deku, and Reaper? Well, he’s right at home as the villainous Shigaraki. Ninja hero Kimimo slashes her way in as the yandere Himiko, and last but not least, our favorite Viking tank, Reinhardt, suits up...

It’s a delightful surprise that’s turned nostalgia into fresh, adrenaline-pumping battles, proving that even old rivals can have a blast sharing the spotlight. Fiery Shoryuken specialist Ken Masters and the whirlwind kick queen Chun-Li are stepping over the fighting game border in style. While the trailer might be light on gameplay, it packs a punch with its atmosphere, teasing fans about what’s on the horizon. This isn’t just a crossover—it...

  Copyright: PlayStation and PlayStation 5 are property of Sony. Brevity and Ethics: i have no affiliation with Sony, I'm just a fan. Today, Sony announced the latest addition to the PlayStation 5 family—the PlayStation 5 Pro. However, the reception was less than favorable. Despite introducing some valuable quality-of-life improvements, told to us per Sony's blog such as AI-driven upscaling, advanced ray tracing, and other essential features, the announcement fell short of expectations. Sony also revealed a limited backward compatibility list, primarily consisting of PlayStation 4 titles. While this feature might have excited fans, the overall response was dampened by certain key disappointments yet to be addressed. One notable concern with the PlayStation 5 Pro is the absence of a physical disk drive. While it's exciting to replay classics like "Final Fantasy VII Remake" or "Spider-Man", the lack of a disk drive means players must have purchased these g...
