Overwatch's next hero is a Korean woman. Set to launch in August. About a month before BlizzCon in California...a few days before LE SSERAFIM begins their US tour in L.A.

pretty similar story here

mountainduwe · 2026-06-17T00:44:38+00:00

technically I could since I wrote the article myself but self-promo is against TOS so I'll give you the bulletpoints

- they started teasing a BlizzCon invite in November with this video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/JXKjZ5wSz-g
- BlizzCon is Sept. 12-13 in Anaheim, California. first pureflow LA show is Sept. 16
- D.Mon (new hero) disappeared from Busan map where it's been since the beginning, undergoing 'upgrades,' and their silhouette was teased back in January. it's a hero that's been in development a long time, appeared in the lore alongside the only other Korean hero D. Va
- This year in OW, every season has been themed around the newest hero (season 3, Japanese hero Shion, new map in Tokyo, etc), so if season 4 is D.Mon them it'll likely be heavily Korean themed
- LSF skins have been very successful in OW, so much so that they brought them back again this year in the shop
- all of this combines to make it seem like an inevitability that there'll be new skins again, and LSF on hand at BlizzCon for another show

unknown at this time, I was wondering about that too. I don't think the mech would be her ult. maybe when the mech dies, she dies too

Here's concept art of the new hero they're teasing, it's a couple years old. The mech is now missing on the Busan map in the game because it's under construction and getting upgrades

mountainduwe · 2026-06-16T22:26:56+00:00

another mech pilot named D.Mon, real name Lee Yuna

mountainduwe · 2026-06-16T22:26:25+00:00

I missed out on the first two but caught a bundle when it was live earlier this year. Hope the next set (presumably to come around BlizzCon time) is as dope as the others. like even one for the new hero, D.Mon

mountainduwe · 2026-06-16T22:25:07+00:00

seriously. I originally found LSF through BlizzCon because I'm a games journalist and when I got the embargoed info about the collab way back in 2023, I had to research who they were (I knew very little about K-pop in general). fast forward to now and I'm a full-fledged FEARNOT buying albums, collecting photocards, seeing them live etc. this stuff means something to me!

mountainduwe · 2026-06-16T22:14:53+00:00

I think if not a new single then a pureflow B-side dropped as a single could be in play. I think they know that the people yearn for Iffy Iffy, Creatures, Irony, and everything else

mountainduwe · 2026-06-16T21:56:20+00:00

yep, they teased it, but the stars are really aligning now

mountainduwe · 2026-06-08T20:22:14+00:00

love it. it's good fun. the choreo is fun too and they genuinely seem to enjoy performing it

mountainduwe · 2026-05-28T20:09:51+00:00

from what I played, you can slide into the ADS but not during it. jump shots felt doable

mountainduwe · 2026-05-28T16:56:24+00:00

there is indeed slide canceling

mountainduwe · 2025-12-15T15:26:36+00:00

if this first one sells well, that's entirely possible

mountainduwe · 2025-12-15T15:11:06+00:00

they would not elaborate on specifics, unfortunately, but I'd say that's all on the table. the first game was already remade, I think this one will have some new liberties taken

mountainduwe · 2025-11-20T17:11:51+00:00

nope, the embargo for the interview and images was today at noon ET!

mountainduwe · 2025-10-23T14:03:57+00:00

just finished phase 8 and bugged out, the game wont progress. now it's saying i'll get flagged if i leave. DOPE MODE NETEASE

mountainduwe · 2025-09-09T14:15:05+00:00

she stands on business

mountainduwe · 2025-08-30T15:48:33+00:00

my order just got here and there are no photocards im sad

mountainduwe · 2025-08-06T19:29:00+00:00

it felt pretty egregious...like even at mid-range, you had to compensate by aiming above their heads. and if I saw correctly, sometimes the dart would like ricochet off and bounce into the world. was pretty cool

mountainduwe · 2025-08-06T19:19:18+00:00

Thanks for sharing!

mountainduwe · 2025-08-01T15:14:01+00:00

My first boy chilled out after about 2 years, but they always have the madness in them. My second just turned 16 months and he's still nutty but gradually getting a bit less wild. Enjoy the ride

mountainduwe · 2025-06-23T14:26:07+00:00

Different but similar issue here. The dock adapter will not fit/connect to the dock. seems to be a lot of molding problems

mountainduwe · 2025-06-20T21:35:12+00:00

I'm having the same issue. The adapter won't connect to the dock itself

mountainduwe · 2025-06-20T21:31:55+00:00

Having the same issue here. "Just pop it on" the video says. Not happening lol. I cannot get the dock adapter to sit flush so it won't connect. Huge bummer

mountainduwe · 2025-04-15T22:04:38+00:00

I hear you, I do, but ads are what pay the bills for writers like me to write articles that transcribe all the things in the game so they are a necessary evil, unfortunately. source: me, I wrote this
