Today our coverage of Computex Taipei 2016 had us visiting the MSI Headquarters where they unveiled quite a few products from their newest line-up. the highlight of which was the Twin Frozr 6 GPUs, the Gaming Backpack, and their plans for a new range of laptop series. Hidden among this was a reveal that Overwatch fans might jump at.
During a Q&A with the leaders at MSI, one of the e-Sports professionals popped up a question whether MSI intends to release an Overwatch themed gaming system as they have in the past with Heroes Of The Storm. Sam Chern, Senior Director of Notebook Marketing responded rather coyly stating, “Now you know my secret project”. He then went on to elaborate how they have worked with Blizzard in the past, and look forward to have something special in mind for fans of Overwatch.
Overwatch has been very well received, and given its popularity and the possibility of it becoming top choice for future e-Sports, it fits in well with MSI’s vision of being at the forefront of e-Sports. I’ve been in love with Overwatch ever since the Beta, and MSI laptops have been a trusty companion on my travels (I’m actually writing up this article on the GT72), so an Overwatch edition laptop is something I am in for. Fingers crossed, we’ll get Tracer splashed gratuitously over it.
