Blizzard Commits To Changing New Overwatch Hero's Appearance Following "Same Face" Criticism https://ift.tt/prvtzmJ Amid criticism that new Overwatch hero Anran looks too much like other female heroes and not enough like her own previous appearance in an animated short, Blizzard has committed to updating the hero's appearance during Season 1.
