Doomfist Is Coming To Overwatch Later This Month
A new hero is on its way to Overwatch. Doomfist, who was announced earlier this month, debuted on the Overwatch PTR (public test realm) to make sure his abilities were balanced well.
Now, Doomfist has a release date for when he's making his official appearance in the main game, which is July 27. Doomfist is an offense hero, similar to the likes of Reaper, Genji, and Tracer. He wields a hand cannon that can be used for ranged damage, and can also slam into the ground, knocking enemies off their feet. As for melee, Doomfist has a Rocket Punch that deals damage up close.
You can watch a video below that Blizzard released earlier today, showing off Doomfist's powers and giving more background on his development and design.
