A few days before the start of the closed beta of Overwatch 2 and in the middle of the circulation of many rumorsrecently the development team revealed the skills and history of what will be its new heroine: Sojourn.
sojourn will come to Overwatch 2 like a damage heroine with certain movement abilities that will allow him to fight the enemy team from favorable positions. She would become the game’s 33rd playable character and be the first black woman to join the roster.
Here is a summary of its capabilities:
Overwatch 2: Sojourn’s abilities
As indicated by the official blog of Overwatch, Sojourn wields a railgun that allows her to be both types of damage heroes at the same time. On one side are those of projectiles, which have a travel time and will deal damage only if the target collides with them (example of Pharah’s rockets); while on the other hand there are the ‘hitscan‘, those that deal damage directly if their target is in the crosshairs.
Sojourn’s main fire is from projectiles that serve to generate energy with each impact. Nevertheless, its great damage falls on the secondary fire, a beam in a straight line that works as a ‘hitscan’ and that consumes stored energy.
Apart from this, it has an ability called Immobilizing Shot. This is an area ability that slows down enemies and reduces their health. This allows you to aim your railgun’s secondary fire much better.
The robotic parts that he included in his body allow him to perform Evasive Maneuver. This is a rocket-powered slide that lets you slip under shields or enemy fire. This can be canceled to make her jump into the air and have her shoot from above.
Lastly, the ultimate ability is Supercarga. Sojourn starts charging up her railgun and can fire very powerful shots that pass through enemies for a short period of time.
Ocheck 2: Sojourn’s story
A trailer about Sojourn’s story was recently released. This indicates that he was part of the armed forces of his country, Canada. Besides, collaborated a lot with the team Overwatch in dangerous operations of the Omnic Crisis and his only interest was that everyone came out alive.
Sometimes he directed the agents and other times he commanded the operations. He did it no matter that he had to counter operations of the Talon organization.
