The latest 7.1.5 patch for "World of Warcraft" revealed several exciting details on some fresh Brawler's Guild bosses where players get the chance to fight against a number of "Overwatch" inspired characters. Don't worry, folks. There's no copyright infringement here as these games share the same developer - Blizzard.

According to Game Rant, public test realms and patch datamining information introduces the comeback of the Brawler's Guild feature that brings in a series of bosses referencing Blizzard's first-person-shooter "Overwatch." Usually, the characters from "World of Warcraft" and "Overwatch" only meet in the Heroes of the Storm Nexus but the latest game mode of WoW gives players an opportunity to combat against the same characters provided that they can reach a high rank.

There's one certain battle where three characters from ‘Ogrewatch,' an amusing Warcraft-like twist on "Overwatch," which introduces characters such as Stuffshrew - Junkrat's parody, Hudson - Winston's parody and Dupree - a parody of McCree, according to Wowhead. It is also possible that players would be able to fight with other "Overwatch" character parodies, which they only need to check out for "World of Warcraft" versions of Roadhog (Boargut), Reaper (Render), Tracer (Blinker) and Reinhardt (Steingardt).

Once the Brawler's Guild players reach at Rank 6, the three characters should start showing up. The ‘Ogrewatch' characters are Brawler's Guild fun addition, which follows the long tradition of "World of Warcraft" in reference to pop culture icons, movies and games.

Blizzard is known to have made references to some properties such as "Star Wars," "Back to the Future" and other things that are not related to its own games but it's great to see this new game mode that relates to its own titles this time. In addition to the Brawler's Guild updates, the upcoming patches will bring in new quest lines and flying to The Broken Isles. Moreover, "World of Warcraft: Legion" is now available.
