While the holidays have come and gone, the Vancouver Titans still have plenty of gifts to give.

The Titans are Vancouver’s professional esports team and a recent addition to the Overwatch League (OWL), a professional esports league centred around the Overwatch video game. Created by video game developers Blizzard Entertainment, the game features teams of six competing against each other with a variety of unique characters and on a number of different maps.

The Vancouver Titans joined the OWL in 2018 and will be participating in their third season this coming year. And while an official start to the 2021 season has yet to be announced, the organization wants fans to get to know their new roster a little better.

Here’s an in-depth look at the Vancouver Titans roster, as well as how to score one of 5,000 copies of Overwatch on PC:
