Insane criminal duo Junkrat and Roadhog are the latest additions to the Overwatch roster, joining the line-up of international superheroes and villains in Blizzard’s team-based shooter.
These former Australian gang members basically like shooting things and blowing things up. Which is admirably straightforward, I suppose.
Junkrat is the skinny, one-legged Joker-wannabe, all manic giggling and pyromania. He prefers to use explosives, whether deployed via his trusty Frag Launcher or placed as concussion mines. His Ultimate move is pretty cool, it’s basically a tire packed with explosives that he can send rolling around the level.
Roadhog is more of a tank, preferring to hook opponents in with his chain and finish them with his shotgun. His Ultimate move sees him deploy a battered, but nonetheless effective minigun.
You can find out more about the new guys, as well as the rest of the Overwatch cast, over on the game’s official website. There’s supposedly a Beta coming this year, but Blizzard’s been quiet on that front for a while now.
