The Overwatch community is trying to figure out who is Sombra.

Blizzard has been leaving secret messages through videos, images and what not.

The community has been succesfully "decrypting" most of these hidden messages, we have started from a video that has been released in the 12th july of 2016 by the PlayOverwatch youtube channel introducing a new hero, this video contained the following secret message that was hidden at 1:16 in the video

this was the code.

72 7B 20 67 78 73 72 65 2E 2E 2E 64 78 7A 75

ASCII code which translates to some spanish words but i'll skip to the english version

" She who has the information, has the power... "

pretty interesting, ever since then communities have been reunited to find out what's going on.

we have been trying to figure out what's going on from image to image, map to map, video to video, another example could be the summer games video which contained this other message in an instance

 Using a tool to decode the Base64 results in the following output:

Salted__���ifK/E�i��9^1Q�*Q�t+V=�

                                /ع��W/

                                      �_����V��?q����f�F���"��=q�������[��

                                                                          z��*����Z����u�\5�k�C

 The "Salted__" header at the start of the string indicates that the remainder of the text is encoded in an OpenSSL cipher, which requires a key and a known cipher. Salts are added to encrypted data to ensure uniqueness.Since we know the salt, and we know the input data, all we need to decrypt is the password and cipher method. Since OpenSSL has been around for ages, there are many different cipher methods.A Cipher is a mathematical algorithm to convert data into unreadable binary data.A Password is key to the box, if you know it you can easily decrypt the data. 

this is what the wiki said.

the witch hunt is pretty interesting and i would like the people that are good at these kind of things to first check out the whole thing on here

http://wiki.gamedetectives.net/index.php?title=Sombra_ARG

and then joinin the game detectives discord to help them finding the clues.

i really didnt want to copy paste the wiki i've tried to use my words, because it wouldnt be fair to take word for word that's why i left their wiki link there.

thanks for reading
