Overwatch's lore is enriched with the arrival of a new comic book that we reveal exclusively! London Calling is coming soon and will focus on Lena Oxton, aka Tracer. The story takes place after the dissolution of Overwatch, learning more about the history of the game while waiting for the release of Overwatch 2.
We see Tracer in the company of an omniac, both seeming to be listening to music. Behind Tracer in her iconic aviator jacket, we can see many vinyls that we can easily imagine her listening to while singing in her apartment. What is the identity of the omnic, and to what extent is he related to Lena Oxton? We'll surely find out in the comic book!
Tracer — London Calling #1
Years after Overwatch has been disbanded, the world finds itself beset by injustice, and vulnerable to self-interest powers. Sentient, intelligent robots called omnics still struggle in the decades since the Omnic Crisis, demanding equality and an end to discrimination against their kind. The world needs heroes again, and heroes often come from unexpected palces.
The story happens before Overwatch 2 kinematics, several decades after the Omnic Crisis. Things are going better than during the Uprising event and not far from where King's Row is located.
