Lorewatch: Bastion - Overwatch Lore & Speculation

Bastion has roots that run deep in the world of Overwatch. The last of its kind, Bastion embodies the horrors of the Omnic Crisis to many around the world and with good reason. Thousands upon thousands of fellow Bastion units made up the bulk of the Omnic forces and they became the face of the enemy in the minds of many.

The Bastion we know today was present at the Battle of Eichenwalde early in the conflict, but unlike its fellows somehow it survived. Lying dormant in the Black Forest for decades the world moved on as the vegetation grew around it. It wasn't until a small and inquisitive bird began to build a nest on its shoulder that it was roused from its long slumber - but something had changed.

The combat programming was still present, but now it ran alongside a fascination with the world around it, and Bastion found nature to be a thing of wonder. It still carries trauma from the war however, and now roams the world to better understand itself, all the while careful to avoid human contact. With Ganymede at its side could this lone unit provide hope for true peace between humans and Omnics in the years to come?
