Overwatch: The 27th Hero Has Been Revealed! [VIDEO]

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.
