The Echo Story Overwatch Doesn't Want You To See? | Overwatch 2 Echo, Mina Liao & Aurora New Lore!
Overwatch recently released one of its best short stories to date, but it seems they don't want you to read it. Poor Echo.
The Echo Transcript is a fascinating deep dive into the struggles of Mina Liao following the loss of Aurora, as she tries desperately to make amends for her past through her latest project, Echo.
But as her reflective proxy, Echo must navigate both the trauma of Mina's past, & the uncertain future she was born to save.
Here we'll explore the new lore reveals concerning Echo's purpose, Mina Liao's drive, & Aurora's special nature; with further expanded details on Cole Cassidy, Athena, Anubis & Hard-Light.
