Making its debut at Gamescom, Blizzard has released the seventh animated short for Overwatch. Each short has shone some light on the origins of its many weird and wonderful characters, with the latest, 'Rise and Shine', explaining how Mei got her much loved/maligned Endothermic Blaster.
Unsurprisingly, the ten-minute-long animation looks gorgeous and is perhaps a touch darker than you would expect considering how cheerful Mei tends to be at all times. Of course, that's the point as her attempts to survive an Antarctic research mission gone wrong still have plenty of moments of warmth as the optimistic scientist refuses to despair.
With all the comics and shorts fleshing out Overwatch's universe in lieu of a traditional campaign, and with the animation quality being so high, it wouldn't be that unrealistic to ask for a feature length Overwatch movie, would it?
