Back when Overwatch was first announced, we were all greeted with an animated trailer so good that you might even think that Pixar was behind it. Since then, Blizzard has expanded its plans a bit and is going to be rolling out a series of Overwatch animated shorts this year, the first of which came out this week, titled ‘Recall' ad focussing on Gorilla Scientist, Winston.

This short is seven minutes long and helps introduce us to several characters in the Overwatch universe, including Tracer, Winston and the Reaper.

Winston

Right now, it looks like these animated shorts will be used to tell the lore/story surrounding Overwatch as the game itself focusses mainly on multiplayer. There isn't a release date for the next animation just yet but hopefully Blizzard will make this a regular thing.

KitGuru Says: Blizzard's Overwatch animations have been incredible so I'll be looking forward to watching more of them. There isn't a ton of story content but at the very least you will get to know some of the game's characters better and who knows, things could evolve with more episodes.

Another game has been added to the busy October release line-up. This time it's TellTale's Minecraft: Story Mode, which was announced earlier this year. The game will be similar to TellTale's other titles in that it will also be a point and click adventure.

The game is launching on the PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360 worldwide on the 13th of October. PlayStation Vita and Wii U versions have been announced previously but do not have a release date just yet. Over the summer at Minecon 2015, we learned quite a bit about the game, with a new trailer:

In Minecraft: Story Mode, you will take on the role of Jesse, who is voiced by Patton Oswalt. Jesse and his friends embark on a quest to find the Order of the Stone, a group of adventurers that slayed an Ender Dragon and helped save the world. Now a new threat has arisen and the needs to be saved once again.

Like all other TellTale games, this will be a five part episodic release with the first episode releasing in October. We don't know when the other episodes will release just yet.

KitGuru Says: TellTale has made a name for itself thanks to its point and click adventure games. Though I do wonder if people will start to grow tired of them. Either way, it will be interesting to see how the studio approaches Minecraft.
