As part of a plethora of Overwatch 2 content being teased, announced and dropped today – we also get the Sojourn animated short “Calling”.
The cinematic gives us a look at Vivian Chase’ everyday life, with her adorable dog Murphy and the occasional croissant – before it is interrupted by a figure from her past. You see, being a vigilante can be somewhat troubling for local law enforcement; even if you are saving their life.
“It’s all connected.”

The animation is absolutely stellar, and further cements my ongoing catchphrase of “Blizzard’s Art Team Does Not Miss”. It all wraps up in a neat little tie-in to the upcoming Invasion content, with a rather convenient escalation interrupting an awkward day for Sojourn.
The short is currently available to watch within the Overwatch 2 game client – so if you have it installed, give it a watch. If not, I assume the short will make it’s way to YouTube in due time; either via a Blizzard run channel or a creative fan ripping it out of the game.
Are you excited for some cyborg lady justice? What about her adorable dog, Murphy? Let us know in the comments or on social media.
