The Queen of Junkertown (Unknown Real Name) Hint: Already has her voice and strong presence in the game along with a poster. Hint: Goes along with the continuation of the Junkrat/Roadhog Lore.
Antonio Bartalotti Hint: Seperate Voice Actor Hired for this Character, only to speak a couple of lines before dying? Lots of Work put into the Model. Hint: Right before the release of Retribution, the Overwatch team claimed they could/may kill off a hero in lore. Possible Teaser/Hint.
Hammond Hint: Lunar Colony Map just got a huge Rework.
I think it’s him. Briggy appeared CGI’d in the Reinhardt short, and then she was in the game. All the models are done via CGI, so Antonio Bartalotti would be my guess. Will probably be a Tank.
Sanjay cause we need another main tank or a defense/support hero that creates barriers so orisa and rein arent 100% YOU MUST HAVE ONE OR LOSE sorta things
I think any flamethrower in this game would just be miora heals but negative effect, that would be way to spammable and would have to do little dps. it’s also another non skill type of dps. i would like another hitscan since we have no new hitscans on the roster other than sombra but shes trash rn. (scoped ana doesnt count)
Other than that uhh,
I like the idea of Sanjay eventually being a character. We could use another Talon agent that is actually a tank to round off the Talon roster roles.
Plus he would make room for Sym / Lucio lore and story stuff surely.
My number on ,and IMO most likely candidate for hero 28 (based on the evidance and what we know so far) is Antonio Bartolitti ,he just LOOKS like a tank ,you can just see it in him ,and coincidently enough more tanks is exactly what this game needs right now ,and they also just released an italian map ,coincidently enough. (This ,and the other hints everyone in the replies + OP mentioned.)
Hmm…there were some clues that suggest the new hero night be discovered in the excavation at Petra. So…a buried king? We are probably due a tank hero…so maybe Talon resurrected the dead king they found there in order to combat Reinhardts awesome strength…he would have a big two handed sword…like a Lich King. He could Taunt enemy players, so their attacks were all drawn to him, and any damage dealt to him gives him double ultimate charge. He could have a melee range grab with a life steal, and for his ultimate he would smash the ground with his sword creating a moving wall of blue fire that burns enemies and destroys all barriers and objects.
I assumed the same thing. When going back and looking at Moira’s origin vid, the “tank” that appeared in her vid is the same shape as Antonio, which makes me think she might have patched him up and made him Talon’s possible Tank.
They haven’t done a summoner hero. I think Maximillien is up next, and he’s going to have a whole bunch of abilities related to summoning Talon soldiers using a fixed resource pool.
