Here is his full lore background: "The man who would later be known as Reaper was originally known as Gabriel Reyes. He was born in Los Angeles. Prior to the Omnic Crisis, he joined the United States military, where he achieved a senior officer position. He achieved veteran status, and was highly respected. At some point he met John Morrison, a fellow soldier, and the two became friends. Subsequently, in the midst of the Omnic Crisis, they joined Overwatch together—a small, elite taskforce created by the United Nations to deal with the omnic threat. Reyes was given leadership of the group.
Overwatch succeeded in defeating the omnics. Morrison, who had played a key role in shaping the group, was given the position of strike commander, acting as the first, official commanding officer of Overwatch. Reyes was passed over in the process, which created a rift between the two men.
At some point, Reyes was part of Overwatch's Blackwatch unit.
As time went on, the tension between Reyes and Morrison worsened. Overwatch met its end through a combination of accusations that tainted the organization's reputation, and Reyes himself. Officially, Reyes and Morrison were killed in the blast that destroyed Overwatch's Swiss headquarters, an event the UN ruled as an accident. In reality, Overwatch had become split down the middle, with Reyes leading a rebellion against Morrison's leadership. As a battle was waged within the base, their fighting triggered an explosion that destroyed the facility, and apparently took Reyes and Morrison into the inferno with it. To this day, Reyes's true agenda remains unknown.
Reyes resurfaced as a voltatile mercenary known as "Reaper." His identity and motives remained unknown. Now a ruthless and remorseless killer, he was responsible for terrorist attacks throughout the world. He fought in many armed conflicts over the decades, showing no loyalty to any cause or organization.
Some speak of a black-robed terrorist known only as the Reaper. His identity and motives are a mystery. What is known is that where he appears, death follows.
Survivors have described a black shadow ghosting unscathed through the most hellish battlefields. The few bodies recovered of those he kills are pale, empty husks drained of life, their cells showing signs of intense degradation. It is possible that he is a byproduct of failed genetic alteration which forces his cells to simultaneously decay and regenerate at a hyper-accelerated rate.
Those attempting to track his movements have begun to see a pattern in his appearances. They believe that Reaper is hunting former Overwatch agents and systematically eliminating them."

Is it from the wiki? If so, it might be written with speculations, or are these from the novel, or a combination of both? The official page of Overwatch mentioned very little.

It's from the official overwatch page as well as the blizzard.press site (where they provide information about the characters, in order for the press to use in their articles)

Got it. Hm, as much as it's implied, not sure if it's the best idea for Blizz to downright tell players who Reaper is behind the mask. Still hoping it could be Reyes's apprentice or relative, and unraveled in... one-player mode? (should be doable)

Yeah obviously they are still working on the singleplayer mode (if there is even gonna be a singleplayer mode), because only the multiplayer is available at the mo. But I'm also pretty curious about how they are going to flush out the backstory for all of the characters. Blizzard isn't really 'secretive' with lore things, like with the backstorys... because I mean, they revealed a massive piece of lore in a freeking trailer, where they revealed that Genji is Hanzo's brother... I mean that would have been an awesome freeking piece of lore to be kept for a singleplayer mode... but they chose to reveal it a damn trailer, so that's why I'm skeptical about wether there is even gonna be a singleplayer mode, and whether it's going to be any good at all, tbh.
