This is indeed the Bastion from the game as he has the bird, Ganymede, with him. Some interesting lore on his character; All Bastions were originally created for peace-keeping purposes but during the Omnic Crisis, which the battle he sees near the end of the short is part of, they were turned against the human nations. He did indeed see combat and was damaged in some way on his way to the city, which is in Germany, making him the unique Bastion he is today. He's honestly similar to the Hulk in that he can't really control when his combat programming comes out, whenever he is in danger or scared it can take over which has lead to conflicts with people who are understandably terrified of any living Bastion they might see. So he generally stays in the wilderness away from civilization. We don't know much more about him other than that as of right now. Easily the best looking short film they've done so far. Another thing that you guys probably didn't know, but the person the film was dedicated to was an animator who sadly passed away in an accident.

Blaze Arrow being someone who's not really into overwatch and doesn't play is op just and airhead or does op actually say sonething true about bastion?
You did not catch that the main theme was PTSD. How Bastion was discovering the beauty of the world after military training but was triggered by the beak sound and meeting battlemates.
Bastion doesn't have PTSD though. It is his programming to react to a perceived threat like that.
It is also a soldiers programming to do so. So how is it any differnet?
yes you can say it is PTSD because Bastion is a sentient being in the Overwatch Universe.
Christian Sørensen What? Some soldiers develop PTSD after returning from combat. Bastion was created with his programming and doesn't react out of irrational fear like soldiers with PTSD do, he reacts in the way that is the best to eliminate any threat.
Does bastion not react out of irrational fear? What would you say the forest scene was then? If a soldier with PTSD hears gun sounds they might act out procedure as Bastion does. Watch "American Sniper" or "The Lucky One" for a few examples.
2 things
A, The hammer guy is the leader of reinhardt's military unit, the crusaders
B, At a point in the trailer there is a castle in the background that will soon be released as a map
It's already out on PTR.
Ik, but not everyone play ptr
same armor, not the same guy.
Almost same armor, Its not the same it looks different you can see the one in this trailer in the new map
***** He died fending of an omnic raid
What gets me about this is that how well done it is and how relatable towards soldiers it is...suffering from PTSD.
And all of it without a single spoken Word.
Soldiers arent the only ones suffering from PTSD though.
Some more info for the people who don't know:
There was basically a big fight between Omnics and Humans, called the Omnic crisis. At one point The Bastion army were fighting and trying to push through to Stuttgart (the city in this trailer), but the Crusaders (the guy with the hammer is called Balderich, he is the leader of the german special forces, ''the Crusaders'' and is NOT the same guy in the game) fought back and held them off in a final stand in a castle close to Stuttgart. All of the Crusaders died except for one, Reinhardt. I believe he was doing Overwatch activities and was never there. The Bastion we know (and hate in game) went rogue and got stranded in the woods.
Also: the bird is called Ganymede :D
EDIT 1: there will be a map in the forest/castle in the forest called ''Eichenwalde''
I think this covers it, if anyone wants to add anything, tell me and I'll edit it!
Well, technically thanks to the new legendary skin, we can (kind of) play as Balderich.
Yeah the battle of Eichenwalde was one of the bloodiest of the Omnic crisis Omnic's being robots, because of the Crusaders last stand the German army rallied and were able to win. (I think an EMP was used all the clocks in Eichenwalde have stopped and that Bastion was far enough away to be shut down and not fried)
Same armor different guy, Balderich had already died before the battle that happened between the Black Forest and Stuttgart
+Aize Balderich already died? But his remains are in the Castle, don't think anyone carried him there
He reacted to the woodpecker pecking as if it was bullet fire, which tells us that he did see some combat. Maybe he never made it to that battle, though.
I love this one the most, because you can show it to people who may have never even heard of the game, and still love it.
"Does he ever go Purple?
"Where he is like... "
"Happy Raging?"
xD im dying
6:00 for Bastions blastin' bullets and canons at factions! The Turret is back and in fashion!
That Dan Bull reference.
The Dan Bull rap nice
Rhienhardt will red hard as a hammer on a stallion
+Adam Kelly ride*
keeping chivalry alive, but hes not asking if he can marry ya
Yes the bird is always with bastion in the game
must have recorded this one really late. calvins eyes bags have bags!
I literally said "Well of course you do Aaron." about him liking to play Bastion, and then he said I would....His powers are growing.
"Not that gorgeous"? Fucking seriously?
Fucking idiot
ғᴜᴄᴋɪɴɢ ᴄᴜɴᴛ
Eat your heart out Pixar
the forest has a castle in the background that is a new map in the game(only on the test server atm). also the guy with the hammer and the shield actually wasn't reinhardt, it was reinhardts mentor. you can get that armor after the new patch as a reinhardt skin as well.
5:01 of this vid to see the castle. also just for extra info the place he's at is germany.
+Syllaren And the modern city is Frankfurt.
it's Stuttgart
+TheFail05 You're right, I mixed them up.
Bastion = Wall-E with PTSD.
A wise man once said
“ war never changes “
When will we see your reaction to the latest Overwatch short "Infiltration?"
I imagine it has something to do with being OP, but could you please give the official Blind Wave definition of an "Aaron character"?
+Dennis James It's just an inside joke that we drum up to rag on each other, but it refers to a character with an exploit he will use that will frustrate us. It's just us making fun. He's probably the best gamer of the four of us. -Eric
Blind Wave
I figured it was something like that. We all have at least 1 of 'those' friends. Lol. Jk aaron! Great stuff thanks guys
Poor Bastion has PTSD
The bird is named Ganymede and he shows up in some of Bastion's Intros and Emotes
The game overwatch is just a training exercise and the last bastion is bastion in the game and the city is a map
That forest is next to a castle that's a new map in the game and you can see that city in the distance from there.
If I can suggest something about Overwatch, you could watch 2 gameplay trailers, as well as Winston's "Are you with me?" short
And of course, Dan Bull's Rap "Overwatch 21 Heroes"!
Even in a robot body, Ron still wasn't able to smash.
Bastion is also one of my favorite characters Aaron! Bastion for defense and Reinhart for attack.
Why does Calvin hate birds?
When he played one of the MGS games a little while back he kept dying in a particular section because birds kept bothering him so from that point on he has always hated birds :P
This trailer put me trough a rollercoaster of emotions, but I loved it!!
Bastion :about to destroy city
Bird: you owe me a nest
Bastion: Hello Bird.
*chirp*
Bastion: What is your name?
*chirp chirp*
Bastion: Toriyama?
*chirp chirp chirp*
Bastion: I would love to see your Dinosaur.
*chirp chirp*
Bastion: IT DOES WHAT?
Ahh nice. I was just waiting for you guys to do Bastion :).
You are the first people watching this that I have seen that actually states that those freakouts are Bastions original programming kicking in, instead of saying he has PTSD (although the first "snap" draws a pretty good parallel)
Ganymede (the bird) is not part of the model, but it is a prominent part of bastion's emotes, victory poses and highlight intros. I admit I laughed when Aaron pointed out Calvin was rooting for a bird, hahaha.
Great video guys, you are still the best in my book when it comes to this stuff.
He was unconscious during most of it, but the basic idea is that he gained sentience like the Omnics even though he was unconscious.
The city is Numbani. Reinhardt is a crusader. One of many and they're all huge with hammers and shields.
In one of the backgrounds you can see the castle from a new coming map. A german Castle and medieval town.
Also, there will be a new character releasing soon; "Sombra" is the codename for them. There have been detectives IRL trying to solve it but rn have to wait for it.
I've been calling the original video a Pixar Short with PTSD
When Bastion woke up I thought "Wall-E" and when he was getting up I thought "Regigigas!"
The "fun" thing being that the Bastions models were originaly intended as basic peace-keeping units for the nations of the world. Then, they got hijacked by whatever caused the Omnic Crisis (the war between robots and humans), became the symbol of the horrors of this conflict and got scrapped when peace came because they were not "sentient" robots, just tools of war.
and yes the bastion madel in the game has the bird on his soldier by the nest
Actually that wasnt reinhartd. it was a crusader. which is what reinhardt is called. i think there Modern knights from germany from what ive gatherd.
There is a new one out called Infiltration
There is a castle you can see way in the distance from the forest. This castle is the new map they released.
At 4:58 exactly.
5:17 path to payload number 1267 found, escorting protocol activated
In this video u see new map in overwatch - castle Eichenwalde 4:59 , and its in Germany and the battle showed up in this cinematic take place in Germany, thats why there was a Reindhardt, because he is from Germany
a Reinhardt? The guy you see in Bastion's vision is Reinhardt's mentor
u see them both
Reinhardt was not in this fight, he was off doing Overwatch stuff. All of the Crusaders died, Reinhardt is the only living member
"What if a gun had a soul and didn't want to kill?"
The similarities between A-16 and Bastion are because they are based on the same character. A robot from an old anime film called castle in the sky
If you go to the overwatch website you can read the lore about the characters
Bird: "Kill them all, Bastion"
Have you guys ever explained Calvin's hatred of birds? I have wondered this since his reaction to Android 16's like of birds in your DBZA reactions.
You upgraded... your table? I like it, your set looks so much better than it did at the start of the year.
Bastion got ptsd
lol black widow i think you meant widowmaker
I also do the same thing I continuously keep calling Soldier 76 The Winter Soldier ;)
Katie Stubbs Yeah they do look quite similar lol :D
+Katie Stubbs i call him Mr. CallOfDuty
+CrazyLuckyGamer0 Dad.
waited so long for this
So close to 100 000!!!!!!!!!
a robot with ptsd you dont see that everyday
The city in the trailer is an upcoming Map. A large, empty ruined city.
There will be more shorts, this is the first for "Season 2," as Blizzard calls it.
love the room lighting, it looks like Calvin is going to die from kryptonite. (cause he's superman)
Will you guys be reacting to the Infiltration short?
Are you guys planing on doing the Infiltration Trailer?
I dig the new foreground Banner guys
The bird is part of Bastion no matter what skin u choose :D
It took so long for the middle guys mouth to close after thinking the bird was dead XD 4:30
This is why overgrown is my fav bastion skin
Holy crap I forgot.
I miss that stubborn bastard Shane. That SOB. 😢
my man Shane wearing my country t.shirt so awesome...
Wish you guys wouldn't talk so much, but glad you enjoyed it
Pls react to the latest Overwatch animation short "Infiltration"
The Bastion Song musical
By Jt Machinima
Did anyone else cry the first time they watched and just now watching their reaction.
It definitely brought a lump to my throat. The emotion was so real and Bastion doesn't even have a face or talk. Shows how well this was made.
Exactly. Mega movie companies spend so much tie to make us cry, yet this 8 minute video pulled the same reaction I had to Big Hero 6's ending. So much can bring you to tears without any spoken words, which is exactly what this trailer demonstrated.
+Jon J
I'm honestly confused about what you're referencing in my reply. Would you be so kind as to point out what you are trying to point out?
Somebody put a muzzle on Aaron.
I'm telling you guys! This is the Iron Giant in a nutshell! XD
Wheres the movie at i swear bro
"Kill Goku". LOL! Bastion IS really similiar to Androind 16
6:54 the bird is like niga why did you distroy my home you fucking moran
Hello blind wave crew

Overwatch Animated Short "Infiltration"
I just realized after all these years, that crusader wasn't Reinhardt, he was Balderich
Soldier 76 short hit me the most. Maybe because im also a grumpy "old" man :|

Would love to join in on some Overwatch on PC!
You guys should react to the intro of the game where they explain the story of the game, it would be cool if you do

His parents are from the Philippines but he supports Real Madrid.
*Vietnam flashbacks intensify*
Android 16 in a nut shell
he can't be the last bastion, I just saw 5 in my last match!
dragons and this one was the best
My favorite one so far is recall, mainly because of Reaper XDDD
A robot with no emotion and doesn't speak a single line of English, ahem Wall-E, ahem Iron giant.
