传记[]
温斯顿是一只受过基因工程改造、智力超绝的猩猩。他是一位优秀的科学家，同时也是代表着人类潜能的一位勇士。 人类重新开启太空探索的第一步，就是建造地平线月球殖民地。居民中有一群基因强化过的猩猩，目的是为了要测试在太空长期生活的适应能力。 在接受了哈洛‧温斯顿博士团队的基因工程之后，其中一只猩猩产生脑部快速发展的现象。博士不仅教他科学，还以人类创造力的故事来启发这只猩猩。而这只年轻的猩猩就在协助科学家进行实验的生活中度过每一天，同时看着窗外的蓝色世界，梦想着在地球上他所拥有的无限可能性。 不过其他猩猩领导的反抗行动使这只猩猩的生活陷入一片混乱。其他猩猩杀掉了科学家，并且将殖民地占为己有。于是这只猩猩决定继承这位照顾他的科学家名字：温斯顿，并且建造临时火箭逃往地球。在地球，他找到了新的容身之地：捍卫者，一个代表着他所仰慕的人类天性的组织。温斯顿最后终于能够实现他的英雄理想，那个从小就一点一滴累积起来的愿望。 现在，随着捍卫者的解体，他再次和他所相信的一切失去连结。温斯顿隐居了起来，期待着英雄得以回归的那一天到来。

Story[]
Harold Winston and young Winston.
Winston was initially a subject in the tests on genetically enhanced gorillas that took place in Lucheng Interstellar's Horizon Lunar Colony. He had shown unusually rapid development, so Dr. Harold Winston, from whom Winston got his name, took personal care of him. Through him, Winston learned science and helped in the doctor's research. The doctor also gave Winston his signature glasses. When the other gorillas started to revolt against the colony, Winston escaped to Earth.
Winston found a new home as a member of Overwatch. There, he became both a soldier and a scientist. His skill in combat led to him defeating Doomfist, and his craftsmanship helped him save the life of Tracer by building her chronal accelerator.
After the collapse of Overwatch, Winston and Athena retreated to Watchpoint: Gibraltar, from which he launched a satellite drone in the event that Overwatch would need to be recalled. He included with it a personal message to the former agents.
In Recall, Winston's lab at the Watchpoint was invaded by Reaper and several Talon agents. He was able to dispatch them, and afterwards decided to finally recall Overwatch agents to active duty.
In the Cinematic Trailer, Winston worked with Tracer to stop Widowmaker and Reaper from stealing Doomfist's gauntlet. Though the gauntlet was damaged, there were no casualties.
Personality[]
Winston is shown to be a gentle giant, never wanting to inflict unnecessary harm on innocents and often stuttering whenever someone compliments him. He really cares about the members of Overwatch to the point of calling them family in the Are You With Us? cinematic teaser. He also seems to have a love for peanut butter and bananas.
Winston is also rather smart when it comes to craftsmanship, as shown by his ability to create the chronal accelerator. He's considered an intelligent scientist as well, and hates being called a monkey.
Notes[]
- Winston is a highly mobile tank that leaps around, creating chaos.
- He works best when moving around, thus is different from the standard stand and plant tank.
- Winston is an effective counter to many agile, low-health, heroes such as Widowmaker, Junkrat and Mercy. His Tesla Cannon does damage in an area and does not require aiming, meaning even the most agile heroes have trouble avoiding it. The short cool-down on jump allows him to launch into the enemy's back line and wreak havoc among low-health targets. It also allows him to easily follow those targets that attempt to flee.
- Pointing straight up before using Winston's jump will make him jump extremely high, and he can still be moved while jumping as other characters can.
- When fighting an enemy, move in and out of your bubble, blocking their attacks while keeping them in range of your Tesla Cannon.
- Winston's bubble blocks shots going out as well as in. It can limit the range of entrenched enemies or turrets.
Trivia[]
- Winston and his storyline may be a reference to The Planet of the Apes movies.
- Winston is voiced by Crispin Freeman, who also voiced Roy Harper(Speedy/Red Arrow/Arsenal) in the cartoon Young Justice, as well as Itachi Uchiha in the anime Naruto. He also voiced several characters in Blizzard's other IP, World of Warcraft, the most notable being Vindicator Maraad in the Warlords of Draenor expansion.
- Winston's name and origin may be derived from Winston Scott, an American astronaut who was assigned as a specialist with the STS-72 Endeavor. Winston's versatile jump pack also alludes to this, as the crew of the Endeavor was tasked with conducting multiple EVA walks in preparation for the International Space Station.
- Winston is very similar to Marvel Comics character Hank McCoy aka Beast, an animalistic person with great intellect.
- r3991n is Winston's ID number from his lunar colony
- The voice line "Houston, we have a problem" is a direct unedited quote from the movie Apollo 13 that has become not only symbolic for NASA but a staple in pop culture, the line however is incorrect. The correct line is "Houston we've had a problem".
