Overwatch Doomfist Hero Officially Revealed by Blizzard

After this week’s earlier tease, Blizzard has now officially revealed Doomfist, the newest hero for their multiplayer shooter Overwatch. Let’s have a look at his launch trailer and get to know the new hero who is landing on the test server on PC and will release to the PS4, Xbox One and PC masses soon.

Overwatch Doomfist Reveal

Doomfist’s cybernetics make him a highly-mobile, powerful frontline fighter. In addition to dealing ranged damage with his Hand Cannon, Doomfist can slam the ground, knock enemies into the air and off balance, or charge into the fray with his Rocket Punch. When facing a tightly packed group, Doomfist leaps out of view, then crashes down to earth with a spectacular Meteor Strike.

Here are his abilities:

  • HAND CANNON: Doomfist fires a short-range burst from the knuckles of his fist. Its ammunition is automatically regenerated over a short time.
  • SEISMIC SLAM: Doomfist leaps forward and smashes into the ground, knocking nearby enemies toward him.
  • RISING UPPERCUT: Doomfist uppercuts enemies in front of him into the air.
  • ROCKET PUNCH: After charging up, Doomfist lunges forward and knocks an enemy back, dealing additional damage if they impact a wall.
  • THE BEST DEFENSE…: Doomfist generates temporary personal shields when he deals ability damage.
  • METEOR STRIKE: Doomfist leaps into the sky, then crashes to the ground, dealing significant damage.
