Blizzard Entertainment recently released a new preview video for Overwatch, detailing the creation of Orisa, it’s next hero. It also noted that Orisa would be heading to live servers on PS4, Xbox One and PC on March 21st. Check out the preview below and learn how Orisa’s abilities came into being.

Orisa is a tank hero, an Omnic created by Efi Oladele, with a plethora of abilities. Along with her Fusion Driver, that fires like a gatling gun, Orisa is capable of projecting a barrier in front of her. She can also use Fortify which provides 50 percent damage reduction and rejects crowd control effects.

“Halt!” allows Orisa to launch a mini-Graviton Surge to pull enemies close together briefly. Finally, her Ult is Supercharger where Orisa throws down a device that provides increased damage to allies within range.

Part of the Public Test Realm server for some time, Orisa has been going through extensive bug-testing and balancing changes. What are your thoughts on her? Is she ready for the live servers? Let us know in the comments.
