A new version of the first trailer forKiller is Dead, originally releasedback in January, has appeared on the interwebs which features the game’s English voice acting. I think my favorite part of the dialogue is when (what I can only assume is) a villain says, “you don’t understand anything, do you?” You know what? You’re right.

Overwatch gets ‘high bandwidth’ mode update on PC

Nice Blizzard’sOverwatchteam has always been upfront with how its netcode works, but needed a ton of time to test its high-bandwidth version before it moved beyond just custom games. That time is now, as the patch is live on PC.
