“Dragons” will focus on the stoic head of the Shimada Clan, Hanzo, and, judging by the above image, he will be in a tense conflict. Although details of the short are few on the ground it can be surmised by the title that Hanzo’s younger brother Genji, the second dragon of the Shimada Clan, will play a part.
Beta players will have noted that flavor conversation between Hanzo, Genji and other heroes sometimes focuses on their strained relationship and the tragic conflict that arose from it, as detailed in their official stories. Will this short reveal the nature of the relationship between the Shimada brothers as it stands now?
Who would you like to appear in the next animated short? Let us know in the comments.
