OVERWATCH ARCHIVES: RETRIBUTION
Experience pivotal moments from history in Overwatch Archives. Join a team of four heroes and participate in cooperative, story-driven missions that give you a new perspective on the era before the fall of Overwatch.

This year, you can take command of the agents of Blackwatch and face off against Talon in an exciting new mission, Retribution. You’ll also get a second chance to stop an omnic insurrection as last year’s Uprising mission returns for a rematch. Looking for more of a challenge? Dial up the difficulty and earn additional achievement rewards.

You’ll earn Archives Loot Boxes as you play, unlocking new cosmetic skins, highlight intros, emotes, and sprays based on moments from Overwatch’s past. Archives Loot Boxes are also available for purchase—but hurry, they get reencrypted and filed away come April 30.
