Overwatch Headquarters

The ruins of Overwatch's HQ

The headquarters of Overwatch[1] were situated in Switzerland.

Description

The Overwatch headquarters was a large, sprawling complex that housed its members. It featured the Overwatch Training and Evaluation facility, offices for staff, a hangar bay, and scientific laboratories.[2]

History

One year before the group was disbanded, the site was destroyed in an apparent accident. Among the casualties were Jack Morrison and Gabriel Reyes. Reyes had led an internal rebellion against Overwatch, and the two men had come to blows in the base. At some point, their fighting triggered an explosion that destroyed the facility, killing both of them (supposedly), and numerous others.[3] Morrison, however, survived.[1]

Trivia

  • The first glimpse of a non-destroyed headquarters came in the twelfth Overwatch comic, Uprising.
