As the developers promised, soon in the 31st hero will indeed appear. Blizzard presented an introductory story video in which she spoke about the eccentric astrophysicist Sigma, who hoped to uncover the secrets of the universe and, without knowing it, became a living tool.
βGravity is the law. I have dedicated my entire career - decades - to this idea! Thisβ¦ principle. If the generalizing theories are correct, we will soon be able to subdue the power of the black hole! It will turn the world upside down,β he says in a video comic that shows a non-linear sequence of events.
During an experiment on the subordination of gravity and a black hole, something goes wrong and Sigma ends up either in a hospital or in prison (most likely in a psychiatric clinic). During the entire video, he is haunted by a certain melody and equations behind his theoretical calculations about the nature of the field and gravity.
At the end of the video, Sigma is fully revealed. He is not only presented in an exoskeleton, but also looks like a real mountain of muscles. He uses anti-gravity mechanics and is part of the Talon terrorist organization, which includes Moira, Doomfist, Reaper, Widowmaker, and Sombra. It looks like the Sigma will be in the tank class. Most likely, Blizzard will soon share the details of its game mechanics. After the credits, we are shown the appearance of the character in the game itself.
Recall: until August 5, in a competitive team shooter, with weekly prizes and themed entertainment. Blizzard also decided to introduce into the project - soon in standard matches it will be possible to take only two characters of each type to the team. Overwatch is available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
