Greetings fellow gaming enthusiasts. You may have heard there's a little game out this week called Overwatch, and it's fair to say that from what we've played already we are looking forward to it.

Recently we treated you to a gameplay video from the recent Beta, and you'll be happy/indifferent to hear that there's more where that came from, and now we have another tasty morsel for you to keep you going until the servers boot up.

This time around there's a few different characters on show, including the mild-mannered robot-cum-turret Bastion, deadly spectre Reaper and the poster girl for the game: Tracer.

​The variety on display even within a few matches is impressive, and the game's forgiving system of crediting even the slightest assist as an elimination makes even support players feel like an asset to their team.

It's pretty clear that the game is best enjoyed with a few friends in tow, rather than trying to go it alone, relying on the fairly simple emote system for communication, and you'll also notice that Sam is (deservedly) awarded Play of the Game at the end, redressing the balance from our previous community outing.

​So, are you picking up Overwatch? Head to the PTC Nights thread for your respective platform to arrange gathering together with other community members, and you can expect plenty on Xbox One in particular from the staff and regulars. Stay tuned for the review from Rob too.
