Overwatch: 10 Major Story Details The Game Doesn't Tell You
1. Reaper Is Periodically Eliminating Ex-Members Of Overwatch
The crux of what little narrative Overwatch possesses centres around the rivalry between two groups: Overwatch (obviously) and Talon.
Talon is your typical terrorist organisation, but one backed by mercenaries and headed up by some more, shall we say, morally dubious ex-members of Overwatch.
Reyes - AKA Reaper - is the most visible Overwatch alumni to take on said terroristic traits. He's got a major bone to pick with his old teammates, and is very clearly determined to take them on. This involves everything from blanket assassinations to high-stakes theft; basically, if it's going to piss off his old friends, he's a fan.
As for his friendship with Widowmaker, it's unclear as to how far it extends. The two are most certainly in cahoots however and, as the lore continues to grow, I'd be very surprised indeed if we were left in the dark for much longer.
