After a few teasers, Blizzard is finally ready to send you on your next mission. Announced today, Storm Rising is the latest in the Overwatch Archives seasonal event, adding to the history and lore of the popular game.

Like Uprising and Retribution before it, Storm Rising will be a four-player PvE event that sends you back in time to re-experience a mission. This time, you’ll be playing as Tracer, Genji, Winston, and Mercy as the Overwatch heroes pursue Maximilien, the Omnic Talon boss.

“As a stormfront moves in over Max’s Cuban hideout, the heroes race against the clock to extract him before he disappears again,” Blizzard describes, alongside a brief teaser for the upcoming event.


Accompanying Storm Rising will be the two previous Archives missions, Uprising and Retribution. These replayable missions reveal pivotal moments in the organization’s history while also rewarding players with cosmetics. There are over 160 cosmetic items up for grabs.

Storm Rising will run in Overwatch from April 16 through May 6.
