After weeks of pressure from many fans around the globe, the Overwatch team released a statement this afternoon informing fans that McCree will be receiving a new name in the future. "We built the Overwatch universe around the idea that inclusivity, equity, and hope are the building blocks of a better future. They are central to the game and to the Overwatch team," said the statement that was released on social media. "As we continue to discuss how we best live up to our values and to demonstrate our commitment to creating a game world that reflects them, we believe it’s necessary to change the name of the hero currently known as McCree to something that better represents what Overwatch stands for."
