Did they confirm the next hero is from Overwatch or something?

I swear iv seen more overwatch hero requests the last few weeks than ever before which buggs me because its my least liked Blizzard franchise and you can already play those heroes in another game whereas you cannot play many of the heroes from Diablo/Starcraft/Warcraft in those games.

Would have like a healer but oh well. I just hope this OW hero comes out busted.

Well here is hoping they pull it off then, tanks have always been more difficult to introduce after all.

A lot of Warcraft and other franchises have NPCs, not player characters

The only OW heroes we can realistically have are the playable characters.

So it’s not like OW has an advantage.

So you can play as Diablo/Mephisto/Caine in Diablo? NO

You can play as Ragnaros/Deathwing/Murlocs in Warcraft? NO

I guess you can play as most of the starcraft roster in starcraft but only on certain missions.

You can however play all overwatch heroes with much the same kit in overwatch.

Can you play as Zeke, Eradicator, Null trooper, Fio, Mina Liao or Petras in OW. NO!

Same situation.

If it is from from Overwatch it doesn’t have to be just Reinhardt. Could also throw us a curveball by releasing Winston.

I can’t remember where in reddit they said it, but I think they did confirm they had an Overwatch hero in the works.
