Mercy's path in Loverwatch

Mercy's path involves impressing her and seeing her as Angela Ziegler as opposed to just a healer. She also makes an interesting concoction of coffee and loves volunteering. On your third date with Mercy, she takes you to Cairo, Egypt. When Ana appears, selecting the "Date. I'm Angela's date" option results in hearts around Mercy.

Genji's path in the Overwatch 2 dating sim

For Genji's path in the Overwatch 2 dating simulator, make sure to follow Cupid Hanzo's hints about focusing on Genji and putting him first. Cupid may say he's not Hanzo, but he sure has those big brother vibes. So don't mess with Genji's heart!

Genji's path involves telling jokes that reference him, reassuring him that he's doing great, and understanding him on a deeper level. He is also a big fan of video games and Rikimaru Ramen.

On your third date with Genji, he invites you to Nepal where he talks about his past and bumps into Zenyatta. There's also a bittersweet moment where the game shows you a photo of Genji and Hanzo that was taken years ago.

When Genji asks about truly knowing one's sense of self, selecting the "Yes" option results in hearts around him.
