For those who don’t know, Overwatch animated shorts are story based trailers that tell the characters’ background stories, giving them additional depth. And for fans of the game, it gets better, more of these are on the way.
According to Polygon, Director Jeff Kaplan revealed that a second season of the animated shorts is in the making, with the production being well underway.
“The animated shorts are probably the thing that we have the most fun making,” Kaplan said. “We really love working with our animation group and digging out the stories not tied to any constraints of gameplay—we can tell any stories we want”.
The most recent animated short focused on the hacker Sombra, who made her way to the game November last year. Kaplan did not announced when the next one will be released, but he did say that it takes a long time to make them. I guess we’ll just have to wait for a while.
