San Francisco Shock, the new San Francisco team for the Overwatch League, has been announced.

A news introducing the San Francisco Shock and related information came up on the Overwatch League’s official website on October 16th. NRG Esports is the parent organization of the San Francisco Shock, of which Shaquille O’Neal, an NBA star, is known to be one of the investors.

We are so excited to bring a hometown esports team to the region that has been central to the growth of gaming in North America.”

They also chose to use the bright orange to represent the city’s famous landmark, Golden Gate Bridge, to which they also revealed Doomfist’s skin in the same bright colour along with.
