Overwatch is a 6v6 team-based shooter video game from Blizzard Entertainment, where players pick a combination of heroes in different roles to complete objectives and win matches. Overwatch is known for its expansive lore, as Blizzard has released digital shorts starring its heroes, books, and comics that dive deeper into the team's history and what brought them and Talon together. In the Dark Horse Comics miniseries Overwatch: New Blood by Ray Fawkes and Irene Koh, Cassidy attempts to recruit new to the Overwatch team. For those wanting to collect the miniseries in a single collection, the five-issue comic is about to get a new hardcover edition.
Screen Rant can exclusively share the new cover for the Overwatch: New Blood collection from Dark Horse Comics. The cover art from Amanda Schank features Cassidy overlooking his recruits from each issue of the series. From left to right, the characters Pharah, Baptiste, Zarya, and D.VA, can be seen in the smoke from Cassidy's cigar. The cover art does a great job of showing what the miniseries is all about and showcases the heroes who are new blood for the iteration of the Overwatch team.

The second season of Overwatch 2 is already being teased s well, as a new tank hero, map, skins, and battle will be among the updates. Additionally, in 2023 the new paid PVE mode will be introduced alongside a plethora of new content in-game.
