Behold the origin story of Overwatch’s hyper-focused and talented mech pilot in the animated short “Shooting Star”
This short centers around Korea’s favorite professional gamer and star of the MEKA squad, D.Va!
When D.Va isn’t enjoying the limelight, she is working tirelessly to ensure she is prepared for the next Omnic attack. Despite apprehension from the MEKA team, it turns out that such an attack was much sooner than expected!
