Overwatch’s Next Playable Character Appears To Be An Overworked Cyborg Crime Boss

Blizzard has revealed the latest Overwatch Hero, Shion, in her cinematic trailer, titled “End of the Line”. I’ll admit, I know very little about the game’s lore, so I don’t know anything about the Hashimoto Clan and the newly revealed elder. What I do know, based on this video, is that she has a very dedicated, but not necessarily competent, subordinate, resulting in her needing to personally handle bigger matters like Sojourn showing up to disrupt her plans – and that she’s a cyborg.

As you’d expect when promoting a character like that, the trailer Blizzard dropped is filled with action and unorthodox combat maneuvers. There’s even a little bit of one-sided romance. Shion will arrive as part of the free-to-play team shooter’s Season 3 update: “Into the Tiger’s Den”, on June 16.
