Overwatch Beta extended - get shooting!

If you were a little busy over the weekend enjoying the feeble sunshine then there's good news - the Overwatch beta has been extended.

It will now run until 6pm Irish time on the 10th of May, so you have at least this evening to get to grips with the new first person shooter from those very successful people at Blizzard.

This is a bit of a change of pace, not only because it has nothing to do with the Warcraft universe but also because its a fast paced action game with a cartoonish style. There's a feel of Valve's Team Fortress about it at this early stage, though it's all a bit more mental.

The open beta is available on PS4, Xbox One and PC and if multiplayer team based shooting is something you're at all interested in you should give it a look.

The full game is out on the 24th of May, 2016.
