Currently in the Public Test Realm for PC players, Blizzard Entertainment’s latest Overwatch hero Brigitte will be playable for all platforms on March 20th. A new video has also been released which explores the concept art and designs for Brigitte. Check it out below.
The daughter of Torbjorn and squire to Reinhardt, Brigitte acts as a support/tank hybrid. Along with her own persona shield, she swings a flail around that will heal her and nearby allies with each hit. She can also disperse Repair Kits to allies, launch her flail at distant targets to push them back and also bash enemies with her shield. That shield bash also offers some decent mobility options like crossing the left flank gap from point A to B on Hanamura.
Brigitte’s Ultimate, Rally, provides armour to nearby allies and speed boost, thus acting as a more aggressive support tactic against dives. More changes are likely coming with the next Overwatch update, including nerfs to Sombra’s Hack, so stay tuned for more information.
