Blizzard announces a new hero for Overwatch ! Get all the information about Ana Amari here and check out her trailer.
Ana Amari – the healing sniper of Overwatch
Fans have long speculated about who the next hero of Overwatch could be, and now Blizzard has unexpectedly revealed it. As many have speculated, Ana Amari, the mother of Pharah who is already in the game, will enter the game as the new support hero.
Her weaponry and abilities match what many theories have already speculated.
- Thus, Ana has a sniper rifle that (who would have guessed it) shoots arrows over long distances. She can either administer a healing shot to allies or inject poison to enemies.
- If it comes to close combat, Ana can rely on her biotic grenades, which heal allies and poison nearby enemies upon explosion. But the grenade has even more effects: Allies receive temporarily increased healing, while opponents cannot be healed at all.
- Her third weapon is a stun arrow that briefly incapacitates the hit target.
- As her ultimate ability, she has the Nanoboost, which players from Heroes of the Storm may already know from Lt. Morales. Teammates move faster, hit harder, and take less damage.
Is Ana Amari the mysterious “Sombra”? It’s still not entirely clear, but it seems like there are indeed two different characters. We will certainly learn more about this in the coming weeks.
What is certain is that Ana hesitated once, causing many lives to be lost, while she herself “only” lost an eye. She is now ready to take up arms again.
