"Overwatch" is one of the most first-person shooter video game today. According to recent reports, even "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" star Terry Crews wants to be part of the game.

Earlier this year, ArtBuff reported about Terry Crew's visit at Blizzard Entertainment. The star joyfully announced that he is meeting the creators of his favorite game, "Overwatch."

This has triggered the rumors that he might be part of the popular game. Well, the actor is very open in his interest in playing "Overwatch" Doomfist. In fact, he recorded a mock audition for the said character and you will be impressed. You can check it in the video below.

Per Fansided, Doomfist first appeared on "Overwatch" backstory. The character has gone through a number of iterations. In fact, he was likened to Green Lantern of The Flash. The different version earned his own reputation, thereby giving Doomfist different titles like "The Savior," "The Scourge" and "The Successor."

On a side note, Express reported that Blizzard has issued a warning to PS4 and Xbox One players to not use mouse and keyboards on consoles. Using these peripherals give players an advantage. For instance, it makes aiming more faster and precise. Unfortunately, the "Overwatch" developers do not approve of it.

"The Overwatch team objects to the use of mouse and keyboard on console," said director Jeff Kaplan. "We have lobbied and will continue to lobby for first-party console manufacturers to either: Disallow mouse and keyboard and input conversion devices OR Openly and easily support mouse and keyboard for ALL players"

Kaplan announced that they already reached out to first-party console manufacturers for their concerns. They are encouraging the "Overwatch" users to do the same to their hardware manufacturers but in a productive and respectful way.
