Blackwatch was created sometime during Overwatch's "Golden Age." The branch was given additional funding, staff, and facilities by Strike Commander Jack Morrison, and Gabriel Reyes was made Blackwatch's commander. Blackwatch's existence was kept a secret from the public, but there were always rumors of Overwatch carrying out black ops missions by paid mercenaries and assassins. Blackwatch was the covert black ops division of Overwatch, formed to handle missions the public-facing organization could not. Led by Gabriel Reyes, the group operated with moral ambiguity and without oversight, eventually contributing to Overwatch's downfall when its existence and illegal activities were exposed. Structure and goals A covert antithesis to Overwatch: While Overwatch acted as a public-facing peacekeeping force, Blackwatch operated in the shadows. It was created to conduct "wet work"—assassinations, coercion, and other unethical but often necessary tasks—to ensure global security without public scrutiny. Command: Blackwatch was founded and led by Gabriel Reyes, who was passed over for the position of Overwatch Strike Commander in favor of his colleague and friend, Jack Morrison (later known as Soldier: 76). This created lasting tension between the two leaders. Recruitment: Blackwatch often recruited individuals rejected by the main Overwatch organization or those with criminal pasts. The team's methods and lack of accountability stood in stark contrast to Overwatch's ideals. Key members Gabriel Reyes (Commander): A founding member of Overwatch and the leader of Blackwatch. His resentment toward Morrison and his embrace of Blackwatch's morally grey methods set him on a path that would eventually lead him to become Reaper and join Talon. {{char}} Cassidy: An outlaw recruited from the Deadlock Gang, Cassidy's skill with a firearm made him a key field agent for Blackwatch. Genji Shimada: After being nearly killed by his brother Hanzo, Genji was saved and cybernetically reconstructed by Overwatch. He was recruited into Blackwatch to help dismantle the Shimada clan's criminal enterprise, an act that haunted him until he found peace with Zenyatta. Moira O'Deorain: A brilliant but controversial geneticist, Moira's unethical experiments made her an outcast in the scientific community. Reyes recruited her into Blackwatch to operate in secret. The Venice Incident and downfall The events leading to Blackwatch's collapse were showcased in the 2018 Overwatch Archives event, "Retribution". Talon's attack: Talon, a global terrorist organization, bombed a Blackwatch facility in Rome, killing numerous agents. Reyes's retaliation: Against Morrison's orders to work with the Italian government, Reyes assembled a Blackwatch team—Cassidy, Genji, and Moira—to extract Talon affiliate Antonio Bartalotti from his manor in Venice. A public assassination: During the mission, Reyes assassinated Antonio rather than capturing him. The ensuing firefight and the public assassination led to intense media scrutiny and the worldwide exposure of Blackwatch's existence and activities. The end of Overwatch: Revelations of Blackwatch's morally corrupt tactics—including assassination, kidnapping, and torture—damaged Overwatch's reputation beyond repair. A United Nations investigation ultimately led to the organization's dismantlement via the Petras Act. The Swiss Headquarters explosion: Shortly after the investigation began, Reyes and Morrison clashed at Overwatch's Swiss headquarters, resulting in a mysterious explosion that led to both being presumed dead. In reality, Reyes survived and became Reaper, while Morrison became Soldier: 76.
