The identity of the Enigma was revealed on stream with huge streamers like Shroud, Kyedae and Scump …as international superstar John Cena! American wrestler Cena, via this cinematic implored each to spread the word of Null Sector’s incoming threat, including a new trailer for Overwatch: Invasion.
“It’s been fun seeing the Overwatch community try to put a face to The Enigma,” said Cena. “Sometimes a face you can’t see is just what the world needs to sound the alarm of a looming, worldwide threat,” he added
