Overwatch has now been released, and Blizzard’s new Waifu FPS game has taken the hearts of fans across the globe, including Japan. While the Japanese gamers are known to be more loyal to their local gaming titles than their western counterparts, let us look at what the country’s biggest gaming magazines, Famitsu, has featured it in its cover!

It seems that Overwatch, which also has a killer voice cast for its Japanese version, has also captured the hearts of Japanese, because if it didn’t, they wouldn’t be releasing so much awesome fanart… such as these ones done by Japanese Overwatch players, and as expected, characters like Widowmaker, D.Va, Mercy, and Tracer are getting much love:

 

More Japanese fanarts can be found via twitter and Pixiv, with the game’s Japanese hashtag, 

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, I don’t see much Bastion, and given Japan’s love for robots, maybe some of the Japanese players are just as SALTY with it as I am…
