Compared to the drawn-out reveal for Sombra, Blizzard's unveil for Overwatch's 24th hero, Orisa, is a pleasant surprise. We were only just trying to piece together her place in the fiction, and here she is!
Orisa was created by Efi Oladele using one of Numbani's decommissioned security robots that unsuccessfully went up against Doomfist. "She believed that Numbani needed a protector and that an upgraded OR15 could do just that," reads Blizzard's backstory for the new tank hero. "Efi repaired and reconfigured the robot and installed a personality core that she had designed herself."
You can see Orisa's kit right here with helpful video demonstrations. To quickly sum it up, she has a projectile cannon for sustained damage but moves slower when firing, she can fortify herself to take less damage and block "action-impairing effects," she can throw down a stationary barrier, and she can launch an explosive graviton charge and (for her Ultimate) place a destructible device that increases the damage inflicted by teammates that fall in her line of sight.
