The latest hero to join the cast of “Overwatch” is Ashe, the
leader of the Deadlock Gang. Ashe was revealed during BlizzCon,
Activision-Blizzard’s annual fan conference.
She is the 29th “Overwatch” hero and the first damage hero added
to the game since “Doomfist” arrived in July 2017.
Here’s a quick breakdown of Ashe’s abilities
- The Viper is Ashe’s main weapon, a semi-automatic rifle. The
gun is capable of quick shots, but does more damage when she aims
down the sights. - Dynamite explodes in an area after a short delay, dealing
damage over time. Ashe can shoot the dynamite to trigger the
explosion early. - Coach Gun is a short range shotgun that knocks enemies away
and can be used to propel Ashe in different directions. - B.O.B is Ashe’s ultimate, calling in an omnic member of her
gang for additional fire support.
A new animated short released during BlizzCon shows a bit of
Ashe’s history with McCree, one of the original “Overwatch”
heroes. The two gunslingers find themselves in a stand-off over a
valuable payload on the familiar Route 66 map.
Ashe will be playable on the PC test server before arriving for
free on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the coming weeks.
