There’s been a test of loyalty embedded into Overwatch<\/a> since the new season began. And no, I’m not talking about endorsements. Alongside other limited-time events like the Hello Kitty and friends<\/a> or Project YorHa<\/a>, we’ve had the weekly Conquest competition where players either pledged their allegiance to Overwatch or Talon. <\/p>\n

Logging on yesterday I was met with Winston’s beautiful face alongside the message: “Overwatch wins. Thank you for joining the Conquest event, hero. Overwatch was called, and we answered. This battle has been won, but we’ll need to prepare for Talon’s next move.” Everyone also got the reward of an Overwatch-themed Echo epic skin, regardless of who they voted for throughout the weeks. <\/p>\n

I wish I could say that this is proof that Overwatch players are ultimately good people. For many that may be the case, but in reality this vote was more of an individual popularity contest rather than a test of faith. <\/p>\n

When someone chose a side you could work through some tasks to get exclusive rewards like player titles, name cards, or icons. Here’s the breakdown of who won when: <\/p>\n
