Overwatch 2 Video Highlights Roadhog’s Funny Nicknames For Certain Heroes

gamerant.com:

An Overwatch 2 fan recently shared a video showcasing some of the hilarious nicknames Roadhog uses for different heroes during the Catch-a-Mari event. These comical nicknames can be heard when players get a highlight in the special Catch-a-Mari game mode in Overwatch 2.

Overwatch 2 is currently running the Roadhog Catch-a-Mari event, which includes a special game mode themed after the infamous tank from the badlands of Australia and his secret love for the Pachimari mascot character. In the 3v3 deathmatch game mode, the traditional Overwatch 2 announcer is replaced by Roadhog himself. The taciturn tank is much more verbose in his speech, shouting out in excitement when players collect Pachimaris during the battle.

However, when players select a character for the game mode, Roadhog calls out some hilarious nicknames for the different heroes. Fans of Overwatch 2 created a short video compilation of some of these clever nicknames. While not every hero got a fun nickname, many members of the cast got one–and in some cases, two–in this limited-time Overwatch 2 game mode.

Overwatch 2 fans couldn’t get enough of these hilarious character nicknames. The comments of the various social media posts were quickly flooded by fans picking their favorite ones from the video, and sharing others they heard during their own games of Catch-a-Mari. Many fans agreed that they should collectively start calling the Overwatch heroes by these new names from now on. It is clear Overwatch 2 fans thoroughly enjoyed Roadhog’s humor–especially considering how little the hero talks in normal games.

Unfortunately, not every Overwatch 2 hero got a nickname for the Catch-a-Mari event.
