We still don’t know Sigma’s full power set, which will be revealed in the coming days. He will be a tank, joining the ranks of Reinhardt, Winston and Roadhog as buff meat shields. This is the first Talon tank added to Overwatch, which means you can finally have a full squad of just bad guys. You’ll have to use Baptiste and his skin from when he was on Talon, but that’s totally doable.
Sigma was leaked early last week by accident when the Mexican Overwatch World Cup account posted his image. Now we know that the leak was legit and Blizzard accidentally teased Sigma a few days ahead of schedule.
The new hero looks absolutely awesome, decked out in a green that would make Oscar the Grouch jealous. He’s not the flashiest or most colorful, but his armor was built to make black holes so it’s irrelevant what it looks like. Nobody is making palette choices when they have the power to crush a sun in the palm of their hand. We will be checking him out the first chance we get since tanks are my favorite role in Overwatch.
Having terrible aim is irrelevant when you just have to swing a hammer or a mace around. Hopefully won’t have a kit that’s as complicated as gravity or else I won’t be able to play him.
Expect to see Sigma on the PTR sometime this week.
