At BlizzCon, Blizzard revealed several characters that did not get greenlit.
If we had to shortly recap who did not get through the development, it’d be the next list: a hockey player with jets on the skates, a cat with a jetpack, and a bear riding woman with dual AK-47s, and during an ultimate, the bear would go bipedal and also use a pair of those rifles… let’s take a breath here.
Jeff Kaplan, the game’s director, and Arnold Tsang, assistant art director, had shown multiple early concepts that were sketched in 2013 before the game was officially revealed. On the first picture, we can see the hockey player, a… mech, and an alien, the third one has the „early roster”: Mercy and Bastion on the left, Torbjörn in the middle, and the big red robot is an early form of Reinhardt. The fourth image is the roster with all their skills.
Unfortunately, without a digital ticket, we cannot show the early game mode that was shown at BlizzCon. It’d be a mixture of Payload and Control, where the control point is a moving one…
How much money would you bet that the unused characters would eventually end up in the 35+ million player-having Overwatch?
