Overwatch is a team-based multiplayer first-person shooter developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. The players each chose a hero to play as their character and compete in a team of six members to defend and secure control points.
F1 2020 is this year’s Formula 1 video game. It’s the 13th title in the franchise and allows players to manage a racing team, as well as drive in a competition.
