We've finally uncovered another Overwatch hero, and while we don't know her name yet, Hero 51 is looking cool as all hell in the bottom right corner of the new heroes image alongside Mizuki, Domina, Emre, Anran, and the infamous Jetpack Cat.

Hero 51 looks to be a modded human, kitted out in tactical gear with what looks like a high-velocity rifle. She's also got a braided ponytail that reaches the floor and is accompanied by an Omnic bird. Like I said, sick as all hell.

Respectfully… y’all aren’t ready for this one 😮‍💨🔥Join us Apr 8 at 9am PT for the premiere of our latest Hero Trailer as we kick off the next chapter in the Reign of Talon 💪 pic.twitter.com/1Etxn68taxMarch 31, 2026

But not everyone is happy with Hero 51's looks. Some say that she seems a bit too derivative to keep up with Overwatch's original style. "I love Overwatch’s very original and distinct character designs," one player says. "I squinted my eyes and this literally looks like a preexisting, iconic design of another character. From another game IP at that." Others are simply calling her "Legally distinct Cammy".

I'll admit, I see the similarities. I think the beret and tactical gear don't exactly help her case. You can also compare her to Widowmaker's Cammy skin from the Street Fighter collab, which again looks similar. But no one brand owns army gear and berets, so while Hero 51 may have a lookalike from another game, I don't think it takes away from the fact that the character design looks sick.

We'll find out more about Hero 51, like her abilities and name, next week on April 8 when her hero trailer premieres, which will also coincide with the next chapter of The Reign of Talon kicking off. I wonder where the story will take us next. She could well be a new Talon recruit brought in to pad out the ranks after Reaper, Widow, and Sombra left the organisation due to Doomfist being deposed by Vendetta. But it's looking more likely that Hero 51 will be part of Helix, a peace-keeping force which is the replacement to Overwatch, due to the logo being on her jacket.
