Blizzard Entertainment and Webtoon have teamed up to release Overwatch: Undivided, which significantly expands the game’s lore. The first three episodes are available to read for free, with a new episode releasing every Wednesday.
Scripted by Sam King, inked by Ingo Adityawanda (Hive), colored by Gilang Pramudya (Hive), and lettered by Hive, with production, editorial, game consultation, and art direction by Blizzard Entertainment, Overwatch: Undivided is a 40-episode series centered around the “Reign of Talon” arc, which is currently running in-game.
Here’s the synopsis:
In the aftermath of Talon’s strike on Watchpoint: Gibraltar, the heroes of Overwatch take in their devastating defeat. But Vendetta is far from finished, launching attacks around the world on research facilities, military bases, and major cities. As Sojourn rallies the weary heroes to face Talon wherever they strike, she receives crushing news that calls everything she’s stood for into question: When the world says it doesn’t need heroes, can Overwatch still stand, undivided?
In addition to reading the first three episodes for free via web or the Webtoon app, FastPass users get early access to episodes 4-8. At time of writing, more than 150 thousand people have viewed the series and it has garnered over 20 thousand subscribers.
