Overwatch Expands With A New Hero: Introducing Doomfist [VIDEO]

After teasing, Blizzard introduced the next hero for their popular shooter title.

In case you hop on to Overwatch‘s public test realms, you may already find Akande Ogundimu, also known as Doomfist, who isn’t voiced by Terry Crews (The Expandables trilogy) after all. Quoting Blizzard’s press release:

„Doomfist Overview

  • Role: Offense
  • Difficulty: Three Stars
  • Overview: Doomfist’s cybernetics make him a highly-mobile, powerful frontline fighter. In addition to dealing ranged damage with his Hand Cannon, Doomfist can slam the ground, knock enemies into the air and off balance, or charge into the fray with his Rocket Punch. When facing a tightly packed group, Doomfist leaps out of view, then crashes down to earth with a spectacular Meteor Strike.

Abilities

  • Hand Cannon – Doomfist fires a short-range burst from the knuckles of his fist. Its ammunition is automatically regenerated over a short time.
  • Seismic Slam – Doomfist leaps forward and smashes into the ground, knocking nearby enemies toward him.
  • Rising Uppercut – Doomfist uppercuts enemies in front of him into the air.
  • Rocket Punch – After charging up, Doomfist lunges forward and knocks an enemy back, dealing additional damage if they impact a wall.
  • The Best Defense… – Doomfist generates temporary personal shields when he deals ability damage.
  • Meteor Strike – Doomfist leaps into the sky, then crashes to the ground, dealing significant damage.”

A fistful of fists coming right up, it seems – you may find some images here.
