Here are Overwatch characters reimagined as dogs

They're pedigree, chum.

Good morning and happy Friday, here are Overwatch characters reimagined as dogs. No need to do anything else today, off you go, weekend has started. Do you know, I've had to sit on this story since yesterday - apparently Thursdays are too serious.

These adorable agents of "Roverwatch" are the inspired work of graphic artist Lily Nishita, who once worked at Uncharted and The Last of Us studio Naughty Dog.

Her "Roverwatch" pack, shared on Twitter, re-imagines Overwatch heroes Tracer, Mei, McCree and Widowmaker - and as region-appropriate dog breeds no less.

Tracer is a greyhound, Mei is a chow, McCree is a, well, a coyote we reckon, and Widowmaker is a poodle.

Which is your favourite?

Oh, and for balance, here's a cat in Overwatch cosplay from Twitter account GamingLive.

You're welcome. Can't believe I tagged this story as "news".
