Ok so basically in like 2030 or something robots were created to help humanity with jobs, but then they became sentient and rebelled against humanity, so millions of people died. Then Overwatch came in.

Overwatch at that time consisted of Reyes, Jack, Ana, and Angela from what I remember, and they kept growing, getting new agents like Moira, Tracer, Reinhardt, and Winston. Eventually they stopped the Omnic Crisis, bringing peace to the world.

Blackwatch was formed sometime after, and Reyes was put in command of a strike team. McCree was the first to join after being detained during a raid on the Deadlock gang (which Jesse formed with Ashe and 2 unnamed others) and was given an option between joining Blackwatch or going to jail. Moira joined at an unspecified time and presumably gave Reyes his shadow abilities

Sometime though, two brothers of the Shimada clan fought, with the older being victorious. The younger was fatally wounded, until he was founded by Angela who saved his life. The younger brother became a cyborg and joined Blackwatch.

A bombing of an Overwatch base happened 8 years before the main events leaving many agents dead and others wounded, one of which was Reye's close friend. Reyes then organized an unauthorized strike on Antonio, a leader of the terrorist organization Talon. Reyes promptly killed Antonio, where Retribution then begins, along with the downfall of Overwatch.

6 years before the present day, Tracer, Winston, Genji, and Angela are sent on a mission to capture a Talon leader named Maximilian. The mission is successful, and they get information on the next Talon leader Doomfist.

sometime after, Tracer Genji and Winston successfully detain Doomfist and put him in prison. However later on, Jack and Reyes have an argument which ends with the main Overwatch base blowing up, presumably killing them both but not really. Jack became the vigilante known as Soldier: 76 and Reyes became the Talon Leader named Reaper.

In an unspecified time before, Amalie was captured, with a successful rescue mission orchestrated for her. But then she murdered her husband, who just so happened to be one of the best Overwatch agents. Amalie became Widowmaker soon after

Overwatch was disbanded, half of the agents became mercenaries. Winston stayed in Watchpoint: Gibraltr until Reaper attacked, he successfully fended off the Talon attackbut realized that Overwatch would need to come back, as other attacks have happened in many other places from Talon. Many agents began answering the call to action.

In Kings Row, a well known public figure was assassinated by Widowmaker, despite Tracers efforts to prevent it.

A Talon soldier named Baptiste defected, McCree took down his old gang, Doomfist escaped and Orisa was born.

The rest of the shorts and comics happen sometime after the recall
