Blizzard reveals Illari, the new support hero coming to Overwatch 2 on Aug. 10 with season 6 and Invasion.
Overwatch 2’s next hero, Illari, arrives Aug. 10 alongside one of Blizzard Entertainment’s biggest updates to the free-to-play shooter, a content drop called Invasion. A new look at Overwatch 2: Invasion gives fans a first taste of Illari in action; she’s a support hero of Peruvian origin, and she’s armed with a massive solar-powered gunblade and a unique ability to heal her teammates.
Blizzard hasn’t officially detailed Illari’s kit for Overwatch 2, but her teaser trailer offers some insight into what to expect from her abilities. Most visibly, she’s carrying a massive gun that appears to be somewhere between a sniper rifle and railgun; in the Invasion trailer, we see Illari take down an ulting Pharah from afar.
