There's are all the origin stories released so far :)
Links to the Youtube Origin stories in Chronological order of hero release <3
Most of the base Roster doesn't have an origin story, but there is this short for Roadhog and Junkrat:
It's not in the same format as the rest of the origin stories that follow, but it's the closest thing that resembles an origin story for them.
Soldier 76 is obviously one of the outliers of this standard (being Blizzards golden boy and all I suppose), and I'm fairly sure his was the first origin story put together in this format:
Another of these outliers is none other than the poster girl herself, which I guess makes sense:
That's all the base roster got, and the following origin stories all belong to heroes that we released after the release of the game.
First of, Ana came out in July of 2016:
Then followed Sombra in November of 2016:
Orisa in March of 2017:

Wrecking Ball in July of 2018:
Played a game this morning, where I was switching between Anna and Mercy, I had around 15k heals by the end of the game and our second support was maybe 10-13k? I wasn't really paying attention to their heals. Our tank was you know... slightly unaware like most tanks are, but they were doing all right when they remembered to stay with the team, and on defence they were smashing it. Our Junkrat was pulling it out of the bag and popping off, but what was our other DPS? I literally can't tell you... they did so little and were so unmemorable that I can't even remember what hero they were playing. The opposite team had this literal god widow as well, and I was having to play super carefully because as soon as I peaked, I would get killed. The Junkrat was super on it when he could and killed the widow a handful of time, but our other dps really let the team down, and in the end because he couldn't kill the widow, she picked off both of us supports and we lost the game.
Basically, F u Blizzard >:(
So, let me see if I've got this straight.
When Overwatch 2 launched last October, it was framed by Blizzard as a PvP-only early access preview of a game which would eventually include a substantial PvE campaign, to be added in a later patch.
Today, Blizzard's representatives admitted not only that the PvE campaign mode has been scrapped, but that the internal decision to do so was made in late 2021 – meaning they'd been knowingly lying about the game's planned feature set for nearly a year at the time of the October 2022 early access launch.
Is that about the size of it?
Replayed the Toronto mission with my duo today and here’s a quickly recap of what happened -
My trying to squish my duo and discovering I can instead whack the trees 😌
Aggressively screams at duo to drink bean juice ☺️
Accidentally buys the only train ticket 🥲
“What would you do if you came onto the train and people were sitting like this?”
Look very closely as to where Sojourn is :)
“I can shoot him in the head if that helps?”
“Would you like a mechanical brain?”
“Oh look, it’s the annoying guy.”
