The information above all comes from
official Overwatch hero bios, videos and articles, as well as interviews and panels from devs, so even if some of my estimated dates (which you can identify using the timeline key) aren’t 100% to the year the chronology should make sense, and the events are all canonical.
I have a FAQ & Info Post, as well as a Source Links post related to this timeline, so check it out! Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions, comments, etc. :)
Please don’t re-post this timeline! It’ll be updated here as new information comes out, and like any other piece of art I simply don’t want my compilation to be distributed without my consent!
Current Patch:4/5/2017 - Welcome to the family, Orisa & Efi! + new colors! And – UPRISING! Read what’s changed below!
