Han Seok-bum, an artist and fan of both franchises, found something in common between the two, however: They each have some memorable characters. He hammers that in with this collection of Pokémon and Overwatch crossovers, reimagining heroes like Soldier: 76 and Mei into classic Pokémon. His choices, as you'll see below, are pretty inspired. We don't know that we agree with all of them, but for the most part, Han nails the spirit of the Overwatch team with a corresponding Pokémon. It's unlikely that Nintendo and Blizzard Entertainment will ever team up to make such a crossover happen for real. Instead, we can only browse these illustrations and hope for a Pokémon hero shooter one day, or perhaps an Overwatch game filled with monster-collecting. Update: We've added several more...

Blizzard (finally) officially announced Overwatch's newest hero, Sombra, at BlizzCon 2016 today, revealing her abilities and her origin story as an orphaned victim of the Omnic Crisis turned cybernetically-enhanced hacker. During a panel at BlizzCon, Overwatch's creative leads walked BlizzCon attendees through Sombra's design, revealing her earliest concepts and the alternate skins players will be able to unlock. While Sombra is the game's newest hero, she's been in development in various forms for a long time, Blizzard said.
