As rumoured earlier today, Overwatch is indeed launching on PlayStation 4 this May. Blizzard's team-based shooter features 21 playable characters, six-on-six multiplayer battles, and objective-based gameplay. The title's seen a lot of success on PC through public test periods, so it'll be interesting to see how well it does on consoles.
Don't worry if you're not entirely sold, however, as Blizzard has announced that there'll be a robust open beta: it'll sport all of the playable heroes, all of the maps, and all of the objectives found in the full release. The beta will run from the 5th May until the 9th May. The game itself, as mentioned, will launch on the 24th May.

Been wanting to get into the pc beta with no luck, but the release date is fairly soon so I'll definitely preorder on PS4
Looks like warframe from that pic...
I'm interested to give this a try, does anyone know if it has any paywalls like dlc or locked characters as if it does I'll probably pass
@Bliquid
Thanks for the response, can start getting interested now
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Yeah it actually does.
@Grawlog They are also great when it comes to supporting their games for a couple of years post launch with free updates. Diablo only recently got new content and modes for free.
Gearbox must be worried because they also have a game very similar to Overwatch due for release and from what I have played of it doesn't seem as good as Overwatch.
