With a spotlight video, Overwatch developer Blizzard today presented further details about the creation of the next hero: Orisa.

As a four-legged robot, Orisa is not only visually robust, but will also take on the role of the tank in the game. Similar to Reinhardt, Blizzard conceived Orisa as someone who feels comfortable in the thick of the turmoil and intervenes decisively with their skills.

After the OR15 defense bots got the short straw with the protection of Numbani, the ingenious engineer Efi Oladele tinkered the remains, the latest hero. Although Efi is only 11 years old, she has created Orisa, a powerful guardian for the African Overwatch city of Numbani.

Overwatch Orisa's abilities:

With their Fusion cannon Orisa has a long-range automatic weapon, but its use reduces its speed. If Orisa is her Defensive Protocol when activated it becomes unstoppable and takes less damage. Together with the Protective barrier, who also protects her allies, Orisa is a solid rock. Or rather a rock avalanche that rolls down the enemy!

With Stop! Orisa throws a graviton charge that attracts and slows down her opponents. Moreover, it reinforces with that Superbooster nor the damage to their teammates. So an all-round hero who will allow new tactics on the battlefields of Overwatch.

The spotlight video gives very interesting insights into the thoughts and decisions that influence the Overwatch team in the creation of new heroes.

Those who like to read more about the background of the design process should also be there spontaneous AMA (Ask Me Anything) from Overwatch Game Director Jeff Kaplan recommended. He was available to fans on Reddit yesterday to answer many questions. Among other things, he shared details about Titan and how Titan's classes became popular characters such as Tracer.

If all goes well, Orisa will join your team on March 21 and be available for Overwatch on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
