Blizzard has seemingly unveiled Hammond, its latest Overwatch hero. Hammond is a hamster in a mech suit.
A teaser video posted to Overwatch's official Twitter account shows Hammond rolling in wearing a hulking metal suit, like one of the droidekas from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Turrets fire, and the camera zooms in as the top pops open to reveal... the cute hamster within.
Fans have reacted in surprise to the reveal - and delight that Hammond's identity as a hamster was correctly called by Overwatch reddit user just 24 hours ago.
]]> Overwatch Wed, 4 Jul 2018 02:47:15 +0000 http://gamewizzard.com/news/35/8804/Overwatchs-next-hero-is-a-hamster.html http://gamewizzard.com/news/106/14484/Overwatch-characters-the-best-heroes-in-every-class.html Overwatch characters are the backbone of Blizzard's ever-evolving... thing. This incredible team-based hero shooter has its own metagame, patch structure, test phases, and massive, massive community. 27 men, women, robots, heroes and every combination therein are available to play, and if you're just jumping in, or returning from an extended hiatus, it can be a bit confusing. In Blizzard style, most of the heroes are viable, but who are the best Overwatch characters? A few pointers will help you on your way to better scores, more kills and wins, wins, wins.
The roster won't be changing again until later in 2018 so now's the perfect time to start picking favourites. Below you'll find descriptions and videos for each hero, broken up by their role as offense, defense, support or tank, as well as recommendations for who to start as, an alternate choice just in case, and one to put your skills to the test and make flashy play of the games with.
As for what's coming next, here's everything we know about .
Like we previously mentioned, most heroes are viable to play, and so it’s very much a case of finding a hero who suits your playstyle, and then making the most of their skills in both quick play and competitive modes. ]]> Overwatch Wed, 4 Jul 2018 02:46:31 +0000 http://gamewizzard.com/news/106/14484/Overwatch-characters-the-best-heroes-in-every-class.html http://gamewizzard.com/news/54/7760/Overwatchs-next-hero-is-a-hamster.html

As part of this month's festivities, Twitch and Amazon are offering a whole batch of games to Prime members at no extra cost.
This marks the beginning of Amazon's Prime Day offers for this year, with more to come over the next two weeks as we approach the faux-holiday itself.
Starting right now, you can get yourself a Prime membership (which can be done or ), which will then get you a membership and thus, access to a month's worth of games at no extra cost.

Yet, astoundingly, this one doesn’t feature Tracer and Soldier: 76 - in their place, you’ll find Mark Wahlberg and Ronda Rousey toting somewhat more current weaponry in these covert efforts.
No, Mile 22 doesn’t actually have anything to do with Blizzard’s hero shooter, but hearing trailers filled with lines like “we are Overwatch” still feels a little surreal. The trailers paint a picture of pretty solid action thriller - those martial arts sequences with Iko Uwais look especially hot - but it’s a little surprising nobody did a Google search before naming the organization at the center of it all “Overwatch.” Especially with plans for a full franchise on the way.
No need to head to a theater - the biggest will come to you.
But then, we live in a world where there’s a Mission Impossible sequel straight-up called Fallout, so I guess nobody in the movie or game industries cares about their counterparts at this point. And, in fairness, maybe we should give a few more nods to the XCOM reboot before putting Blizzard’s vision of Overwatch on a pedestal.
Check out a Mile 22 trailer here.
