According to the information and image released by the game developers, this will be a romantic hero with a lot of utility in his abilities.

Blizzard announces new hero for Overwatch 2

Last April 3 night, Overwatch 2 developers Blizzard announced the new hero coming to season 4.

The official Overwatch Twitter account notes that today, April 4, they will give many more details regarding Lifeweaver. However, there has been a lot of information regarding this new hero rolling around social networks and different blogs in the last few days.

In the image, we can see that Lifeweaver has a pink cherry blossom floating in his right hand. On the other hand, the developers previously anticipated this announcement when they published a Tweet with a flower emoji hours before it.

Lifeweaver’s abilities

The official Overwatch account said that details regarding this new hero in the game would be released soon. However, during the last few days, some discussions have been about them. In addition, something has also been advanced regarding Lifeweaver’s play style.

Alec Dawson, the person in charge of designing this character, said that Lifeweaver is a support hero that does not require players to have a great aim in the game. In addition, it is noted that the character’s abilities will rely on the regenerative healing flower.

According to Dawson, Blizzard’s goal in adding a new hero is that the hero would not depend on the players’ aim. In addition, he points out that Lifeweaver is designed for those strategic players who take good care of their positioning within the game.

Below, we will show you information about Lifewaver’s possible abilities.

• Thorn Volley
• Rejuvenating Dash
• Parting Gift – Passive
• Tree Of Life – Ultimate

Thorn Volley is Lifewaver’s attack ability, which is a primary shot that can do a lot of damage to opponents. Rejuvenating Dash is an ability that will allow Lifewaver to regenerate his life in a hurry.

Parting Gift: This ability is activated when the character dies in the game, dropping a healing item that teammates or rivals can pick up. Finally, we have the Tree Of Life, which will allow healing teammates within a certain area. In addition, it can be placed anywhere on the map, interrupting the rivals’ lines of sight.

Difficult-to-handle hero

According to the hero’s designer, Lifewaver may be a somewhat complicated character to master. However, according to all the information released, many have stated that this hero will be easy to learn but very complicated to master to perfection.

As for the release date, it is only clear that the new hero will arrive with the new Overwatch 2 season. In addition, it has also been revealed that Lifewaver will be unlockable through the battle pass.
