Genesis is the name of Overwatch 2’s upcoming anime mini-series, and there is plenty to be excited about. Premiering in July 2023, fans don’t have long to wait before they get their first taste of a three-part release telling a new story from the game’s unique world.

In a trailer shared for the upcoming release, fans got a glimpse at its story, which will debut new characters from the story set during the Omnic Crisis. This means the show will be somewhat of a prequel to the vents of the popular game.

Before you get too excited, here’s everything you need to know about its release so you can be sure not to miss it.
