Game
Blizzard's first attempt on competitive fps and the result is astonishing. An fps that is well polished on every level, easy to learn, hard to master. It has a playful atmosphere but with a very serious competitive gameplay.
Colorful graphics, characters you fall in love with and a variation with every character that makes the game feel like a totally new game every time you try a new character.
Overwatch is a worldwide phenomenon and we understand why.
Co-op
At its core, Overwatch is focused on competitive gameplay players vs players. Overwatch 1 includes player vs bots games but it feels boring compared to facing off players.
The game also has story missions where you together with some friends can play classic coop missions that are decent. But they are very few and short. Basically you shouldn't buy the game for its coop. However Overwatch 2 is announced and it is rumored to be focused on coop missions, so keep an eye out for that.
