The update kicking off the Baptiste event also introduces the new Replays feature. This will let you watch previous matches with flexible controls over aspects like camera and playback speed. You can check out the official site for more info including keyboard shortcuts.

Baptiste was added to the game in March, and he marked the game's 30th Hero. Overwatch has had more frequent, smaller events recently in addition to its big holiday-themed ones, including dabbling with free-to-play and introducing a new Workshop feature.
