Thirty years into the future mankind has experienced an era of peace and technological advancement including the development of a working-class race of robots called Omnics. However the Omnics rebelled starting a long and bloody war known as the Omnic Crisis. The U.N. developed a taskforce called Overwatch that eventually ended the war. The heroes of Overwatch were loved by all and expanded into multiple areas of science and exploration. Controversy and in-fighting eventually led to Overwatch’s disbandment and the heroes scattered across the globe. New threats are arising with each day including a terrorist organization known as Talon and a second Omnic Crisis.
