Earlier we had a look at Zenyatta for Overwatch and it was a bit jarring and a letdown for me. I was so very excited and then seeing things in action kind of let me down. At least until now as I have seen it looks like it was only the character there that has me on edge about Overwatch. I say this because now we have a good look at how Mercy will handle in the game; at least in terms of the pre-alpha footage that was used to show off the match that focuses completely on this healing angel that looks to play a lot like all of the medics from Evolve.

While the medic isn't usually my class of choice in games like Overwatch, the following footage definitely shows me that I may have been too quick to judge based on the previous gameplay that Blizzard has sent our way. While there is no denying that Mercy dies a lot more here, it is worth noting that she doesn't prattle on with every attack and she looks to be more useful than any of those medic in other title we have seen. Also she seems to be able to move more fluid than the robo-Buhhdist that was the focus from before.

Of course you don't have to just take my word for it. You can check out the latest footage for Overwatch just below and see the second full match and character highlight for the game itself. Enjoy.

That was a much better showing of Overwatch wasn't it? Or was Mercy not your flavor of character and would you want to see someone else get the highlight for Overwatch? That's a silly question as I am sure we all want to see each character highlighted and with their own match. None the less, tell us what you thought about what you just saw for Overwatch down in the comments. We'll be sure to keep you all up to date for all things Overwatch in the future so check back often.
