A bit. But even more animesque. And it also predates Overwatch.

Introducing PSY-Con, a series of FPS where you play as a bunch of psychics battling it out using their psychic powers. Originally released in 2004 as an arcade title, the series has recieved multiple sequels and ports to both PC systems and consoles, and has maintained quite a following around the world.

Unlike most FPS, where players use an assortment of guns, the characters in PSY-Con use their psychic powers, with various abilities (such as rapid and spread fire) tied to their elements. The character designs are anime-inspired and colorful, another thing that sets it apart from other FPS.

The first game in the series, PSY-Con: Magical Arena, was originally released in 2004 for Arcades (NOVA-II System), where it used the Amaze.net online service for online multiplayer for up to six players. It was originally developed by ex-Sega AM2 employees who were working on a spiritual successor to Outtrigger, also an arcade-based FPS, before becoming what it is now.
