The reason why there is such a discussion is because Overwatch is an offspring of the failed project “Titan” or even Starcraft. In it, there is concept art that transfered to the Overwatch concepts like McCree, Genji/Hanzo or Tracer.
Based on the developement phase of Overwatch, It was tracer who got a code first but Pharah, Raper, and Widow were developed at the same time as well.
There are different answers, each with another basis.
I think the first hero to have a working model was Torbjorn, he also came from Titan’s art assets. The first OW hero to exist in the canon is Reinhardt. The first official member of Overwatch when it was formed during the omnic crisis was probably 76.
Didn’t realise there was a first hero. It makes more sense to me they started with a bunch of heroes on paper instead of just one.
dont really remember , but i think it’s was genji ,hanzo or bastion
i almost 99% sure it’s was bastion tho
Because the thread’s 5+ years. I don’t know why you keep posting on very old threads.
There’s not really a first hero, just a bunch of them all at once, otherwise this game wouldn’t have started.
Tracer was the first hero.
