Blizzard pumps the breaks on eating Marvel Rivals' lunch with attractive Overwatch 2 heroes, says the team still "loves oddballs" like Bastion and Winston

Wuyang smiles at the camera and poses in a screenshot from Overwatch 2.

Overwatch 2's newest hero is Wuyang, a science-based water bender who looks like the most aggressive support character the evergreen shooter has seen in years. He's also pretty hot, continuing a recent Overwatch trend that's seen conventionally attractive skin-sellers like Juno and Kiriko and Lifeweaver come to the game back-to-back, though the team's apparently still committed to the oddballs, too.

Lead hero designer Alec Dawson responded to some online misreporting in a new livestream, explaining that the "roster is comprised of soldiers, scientists, adventurers, and oddities." The latter isn't going anywhere, either. "Heroes like Winston and Bastion are really important to our universe. They're what makes Overwatch Overwatch. They're the special sauce that makes our universe unique."
