Blizzard just dropped a big surprise for Overwatch 2 players! Vendetta, the game’s first-ever true melee Damage hero, has been officially revealed with a new trailer.

Vendetta Abilities
Vendetta fights with a massive Palatine Fang greatsword and focuses entirely on fast, close-range combat. Her kit is built around mobility and aggressive play, letting her dash in, slice through enemies, and keep increasing her speed thanks to her Onslaught passive.
A lot of people thought she would be a Tank, similar to Junker Queen, but it seems like they decided to make her a more melee focused DPS. There are other characters that are mainly played in melee, but according to Blizzard, Vendetta is really the first hero that will be focused on close-range combat.
Her main abilities include:
- Whirlwind Dash – a fast dash to close distance.
- Soaring Slice – an aerial strike to finish or engage.
- Projected Edge – a ranged slash to pressure targets.
- Sundering Blade (Ultimate) – a heavy, frontal attack that deals massive damage to anyone caught in front of her.
You will be able to try Vendetta early during the Hero Trial from November 26 to December 1. She will officially release in Season 20 on December 9!
