That’s right! According to the Twitter post (seen above) we can expect to see several short animated films released over the course of 2016. The behind-the-scenes video embedded in their tweet also shows a brief glimpse of what we can expect from our favorite heroes in the upcoming shorts.

For those who enjoyed the original cinematic trailer released around this time last year this is incredible news. Many fans have been hoping to see a feature length film based on Overwatch ever since its original cinematic trailer was released. With an art style and plot design that screams Pixar or Marvel’s Big Hero 6 animated film, it comes as no surprise that fans want more.

Considering the fact that Activision Blizzard has recently opened a new movie and TV studio, maybe we can hope to see more Blizzard franchises in films and TV shows in the future. Personally, I would love to see a full-length Starcraft film.
