Yes, the infamous party-wiping mounted chaingun of a character can now move around while in turret form. Bastion is completely transformed – and is not the only one.I’m playing the Overwatch 2 closed alpha PvP test ahead of the closed beta on 26th April, which will invite members of the public in.

“There were some comments that came up on Twitter after the game was released saying ‘Oh, she’s ugly, she’s not very attractive, I’m not interested in her’,” says Jane Perry, the voice of Returnal’s lead character Selene. “And I thought that was such an interesting comment, I thought it was kind of illuminating in some ways in terms of what is expected of female characters in games, especially if they’re going to be a kick-ass hero like Selene. “And I just got to thinking, that person probably feels that because he or she has been fed a steady diet of…
