In the new season that was launched earlier this year, Blizzard officially abandoned “Strike 2” and fully returned to the original “Strike”. At the same time, the team also launched five new hero characters at once, and promised to add a new character every season in the future. It also released the silhouettes of these five characters. For example, in the second season that debuted last week, Blizzard introduced the latest character “Siara” to players.
While players were still familiar with the changes this new character had brought to the game’s Meta, a whistleblower who had accurately revealed the skill set of “Siara” SarenArtanis Posted again, revealing to fans in advance the details of the four new heroes that will appear in the next third, fourth, fifth and sixth seasons.
Season 3 (June) – Unknown title
The leader of the “Hashimoto Family” Tesakabu is a female damage hero who uses double guns and bayonets. The whistleblower said that this character’s fiery personality reminded him of“Levi”, the character of “Corporate Mercenaries”, and in the background story of the game, he is the mastermind behind sending the character “Rui Xi” from the first season to serve as an undercover agent next to Kiriko and the defenders.
Season 4 (August)-D.MON
Affiliated to the same Korean mecha force as D.VA, this female tank hero holds a light sword and a shield, and will introduce a new type of health mechanism. She also has the ability to fly for a long time similar to the tank character “Angela” in “Marvel Confrontation”.
Season 5 (October) – Unknown title
An omnic detective owned by “Helix International Security Company”, a male auxiliary hero who uses a cane and has “anti-healing aura”. He was entrusted to investigate the mysterious commotion in the Icelandic prison, paving the way for the character who will appear in the sixth season, the final season of the 2026 chapter “Claw Dominance”.
Season 6 (December) – Hivemind
A former Talon agent who was imprisoned in Iceland, a female auxiliary hero who can control a swarm of drones. The tipster said that this character first appeared in the concept art of “Project Titan”, the predecessor of “Overwatch”, and appeared in the spin-off novel “Overwatch: Declassified”, where he planned the hostage incident that led to Reinhardt’s forced retirement.
If the news is true, the new leader of the Talon organization, “Vendetta”, will take away the Zero Quadrant command ship held by the “Queen of Junktown” in the story of the sixth season, and build the machine that players saw in the preview of the Iceland map, thereby liberating the “hive consciousness” imprisoned in the prison there.
Although players should still take this information with a grain of salt, the backgrounds and skill designs of these characters are quite consistent with the official outlines, plot development, and future content plans. Whether these revelations are true or not will not be revealed until the new heroes of Season 3 are officially announced at the end of May or early June this year.
