Overwatch Retribution Event Begins April 10, 2018

As detailed on the Overwatch League site, pass holders will get access to the Overwatch League Command Center which gives you the ability to view a second tournament screen featuring real-time stats, new camera angles and even player POVs, you big weirdo.

Play as Reaper, McCree, Genji or Moira as you fight against a whole mess of Talon soldiers.

Players who participate in Retribution can unlock over 100 in-game items from the previous Overwatch Uprising event, along with 60 new items specifically tailored for Retribution. But, if you're a Twitch Prime member, you can get it for $19.99. A variety of new, previously unseen enemy types were shown including an assassin, a sniper, and a heavy assault.

Mexican president slams Trump over border plan
On Thursday, Trump tweeted that the caravan was now "largely broken up" after Mexico had used their "strong immigration laws". They said that the size of the group of more than 1,000 people had made travel too hard , The Washington Post reported .

All of the old cosmetics from last year's event will be able to be earned and purchased with in-game gold for a reduced price. Reaper will be getting a "Soldier: 24" skin as a nod to his days in the Soldier Enhancement Program that also led to the enhancement of Commander Jack "Soldier: 76" Morrison.

Unlike Uprising, Retribution won't reuse an existing map - Venice is an all-new creation.

The Retribution event takes place on the upcoming Escort map, Rialto.

Apple reportedly plans iPhones with curved screens and non-touch gesture controls
Bloomberg's sources have told them that the phone will detect a gesture without the user having to actually touch the screen . The other part of the report also isn't entirely new - we've heard rumors about the iPhone with a curved screen for years.

Recurring PvE missions within Overwatch will now be known as "Overwatch Archives".

A little bit of back-story for the Retribution mission was also revealed in the latest digital comic of the same name.

Running from 10th to 30th April, we get to see a potentially pivotal moment in the history of Overwatch, as their black ops Blackwatch team get into a spot of bother in Venice.
