Tracer’s ‘butt pose’ has officially been replaced in Overwatch

The Overwatch victory pose that somehow got controversial will be changed and the Blizzard has revealed what pose Tracer will do instead of the Butt Pose. The new pose, as seen above, has Tracer's back facing us at a 3/4 view.

This isn't the first case where character in video games has been accused of being overly sexualized, certainly not the first time in the past few months. The JRPG Star Ocean 5 changed a few things to avoid angry internet people, Capcom removed a certain feature, Black Dessert Online started making fun of Blizzard for the removal of the butt pose, and now it seems like this particular controversy has ended.

It started about a week ago when some people in the Overwatch community got mad at a victory pose for the character Tracer, claiming that it was overly sexualized. Blizzard listened to the complaints and created a new victory pose for her that hopefully won't get people mad.

Blizzard's Jeff Kaplan said this about the pose "We'll replace the pose. We want *everyone* to feel strong and heroic in our community. The last thing we want to do is make someone feel uncomfortable, under-appreciated or misrepresented."

Apparently the pose for Tracer was something the Overwatch team had discussed internally on whether or not to have and Kaplan credits the beta players for pointing it out and helping them make the final decision on the pose "We weren’t entirely happy with the original pose, it was always one that we wrestled with creatively.
