Brigitte joins the ever-growing cast.

Blizzard announced that the next rookie in the team-based FPS is going to be Torbjörn’s daughter called Brigitte, who, according to the official description, is a support character specialized in armor. Quoting Blizzard regarding her skills:

„

• Rocket Fail: Brigitte’s melee weapon has an extended range, enabling her to strike multiple enemies with a single swing.
• Repair Pack: Brigitte throws a Repair Pack that can heal an ally. Any healing over that ally’s maximum health provides them with armor instead.
• Whip Shot: Brigitte throws her flail a long distance, dealing damage and knocking an enemy away from her.
• Barrier Shield: Brigitte deploys a frontal energy barrier to absorb a limited amount of damage.
• Shield Bash: Once her Barrier Shield is deployed, Brigitte can dash forward to stun an enemy.
• Rally: Brigitte moves faster and provides all nearby allies with armor that lasts until it’s removed by damage.

”

Rally would be her Ultimate. She’s already available on the public test server on PC, so she’s going to show up on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in just a few days.
