Overwatch: New Hero Echo Revealed

Overwatch’s 32nd hero has been revealed, an omnic named Echo.

Blizzard had been teasing Overwatch's next hero in recent days, but made things official this morning with the drop of Echo’s story trailer, which you can watch below.

This isn't even close to the first time we've seen this character, with the Overwatch community speculating about Echo for years now – though the assumption was generally that they would be named Athena. Echo appeared in an Overwatch animated short called Reunion way back in 2018, and has technically been "in the game" the whole time as the payload on Route 66.

Details on Echo's abilities aren't available yet, but we'll be sure to update this post when they are.

This story is developing...
