Overwatch’s 32nd Hero is Echo

Overwatch’s 32nd official hero is Echo. Blizzard has been teasing this for the past few days, and now we’ve confirmed it with a character trailer.

Hero introductions often tell us who this character is and where they come from, and this time with Echo is no exception. From the origin story, it seems that Dr. Mina Liao, who helped create the minics, also created Echo. Dr. Liao also passed away due to an attack on the job, while Echo will continue to fulfill the doctor’s ‘promise’: to help people in the future. Echo can be seen as the embodiment of Dr. (just like the hero Echo’s name, meaning echo, linger)
