Overwatch Previews Roadhog and Junkrat

by on Sep 25, 2015

Finally Overwatch gets some bad guys in it's character rotation.

As the clock ticks down to the Overwatch Beta release date which has been speculated to be sometime in early October, the new characters you'll be able to play keeps coming. This time we get a look at a Junkrat and Roadhog, a criminally insave duo that look like they would fit right in with the Mad Max crowd, scrap and all.

Roadhog is the beefier of the two, blending a mix of TF2's heavy hachine gun style play (although it seems to fire a shotgun spray instead of bullets) with a little Mortal Kombat Scorpion chain grab that can pull enemies right into the range of his junky looking shotgun. 

Junk Rat is a small wirey character, who uses his hand made creations to make up for his punitive size. In the short video we can see him using some kind of launch pad to propel him up onto a platform, a remote control bomb that races to enemy positions before detonating, and what appears to be a greande launcher as his primary weapon.
