I am so grateful for our community - it's players, past present and future.

This world means so much to us... and to me personally. I sincerely hope that 10 years from now, we're celebrating another decade together.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

The game launched a few years later, on May 24, 2016. Players worldwide jumped into the game... and they still do!

So much credit belongs to all of the people that have worked on and still work on this amazing project. They are the real heart and soul of this game.

...to the announcement at Blizzcon in November of 2014. Watching Metzen's intro, where he was visibly emotional about the game... I still tear up.

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

...to our core combat milestone with 4 playable heroes in April of 2014...

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

As development got underway, the team went from Tracers running around a test environment in London in late 2013...

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

Even then, Overwatch heroes were larger than life. First person versions of the types of characters that Blizzard does best.

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

Overwatch is a game about its heroes. This lineup image was from the 2013 pitch deck to executives and was credited as the moment where the room transformed from doubtful to excited about what this game could be.

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

We worked in paper for months while the engine was being rebuilt, before building our first real map - Temple of Anubis.

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

We also worked on ideas for maps, many of them inspired by locations we talked about for Titan. I've always wanted to make that Galapagos map. The idea behind it was crazy!

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

We worked a lot on combat feel, studying other games and working through problems in engine and through concepts. This was a piece on how low health and getting hit would look like in game...

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

We quickly got to work, figuring out key issues for the new project like character and environment scale. These images were generated in the Titan engine, since we were still working on a new engine and editor for Overwatch...

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

We codenamed the new project Prometheus and the development team called ourselves Prometheans.

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

This first image isn't from OW! It's a concept for a game the team was exploring just after the cancellation of Project Titan in 2013. That game never materialized. It was a totally different setting, but as you can see in this image, a few ideas from that game moved into OW.

[Aaron Keller @aaronkellerOW]

Happy 10 year anniversary, Overwatch!

While the game launched 10 years ago, Team 4 started working on it in mid-2013. I'd like to take you all through some of that original journey that the team took to launch the game.
