Overwatch Devs officially renamed MCREE for better representation

Overwatch developers officially rename the McREE character into something else that they think better is the company. Jesse McREE, the main designer of Diablo 4, has been truly dismissed from the company as a result of allegations of sexual harassment and widespread discrimination.

We believe that it is necessary to change the name of the hero currently known as the McREE in something that represents better what Overwatch., Blizzard said in a statement. We built the Overwatch universe around the idea that inclusiveness, fairness and hope are the constituent elements of a better future. They are at the heart of the game and the Overwatch team.

This will result in a huge change in the Overwatch tradition, but this decision would be part of the Overwatch team on the respect of their values ​​and their commitment to create a world of play that reflects what they represent . The decision to delete the McREE name of the Overwatch Fund will result in a delay in the narrative arc of the game - which would have been initially scheduled for September - until a little later in the year. In addition to the change of name of McREE, Blizzard also confirmed that the characters of the game will no longer be named after real people for soyez more thoughtful and more demanding as to the addition of real world references in the future content Overwatch.

The full renaming of the famous Overwatch hero should be a much larger task than simply modifying a text field, especially because the name of the game has been linked to the game since its initial launch in 2016.

Rename the character McREE into a new unidentified name will also mean thatoverwatch will soon offer new sprays, cards, hero skins and even re-register all the vocal lines that mention its name. This does not only indicate the Matt Mercer Mccere Performance, but also will also include all random jokes between the McREE character and other characters from the Overwatch scenario.
