Overwatch followers have been graced with yet one more teasing trace on the shooter’s subsequent hero.
This time it’s gone a bit meta: this isn’t only a teaser. It’s a teaser posted in Overwatch lore by genius robotics prodigy Efi Oladele, and lovingly regurgitated by Blizzard.
Oladele is widely believed to be building the next Overwatch hero. So who’s it? The spider tank thing seems to have lost momentum, and since we’ve been anticipating Doomfist for the reason that Overwatch beta nobody really gets too excited about that prospect anymore – even with the recent Doomfist-related furor.
The present concept, primarily based on recreation director Jeff Kaplan’s DICE discuss which included some mysterious character artwork he rigorously didn’t reference in any means, is that Athena, the AI who oversees Overwatch matches, is getting some kind of robotic physique.
The teaser picture itself mentions that Oladele doesn’t want to purchase a vocal processor, as she already has one – in her present type in Overwatch we solely know Athena from her voice, in order that traces up.
In any case we’re greater than prepared to seek out out what’s truly happening. As the lengthy drawn out Sombra AR game proved, our persistence has its limits, and a few folks suppose Overwatch could stand to get new heroes a bit quicker.
Expect extra Overwatch information this week, if the present charge of teasers continues.
