Every Overwatch Character’s Backstory

D.Va

19 year-old Hana Song–who goes by D.Va–was recruited by the South Korean government to pilot a mech suit. She’s a former professional gamer, who was the reigning world champion when she was drafted, with top reflexes and instincts.

In-game, D.Va was known for her brutal play style, and her determination to win regardless of the costs. She was the perfect candidate to face the “colossal omnic monstrosity” that continuously damaged coastal cities along the East China Sea.

D.Va pilots her armored drone unit, MEKA, like she’s in the game. She became a global icon when she began streaming her combat operations to her fans.
