Overwatch’s Ashe is a great hero for people who just want to shoot things

Since launching during May 2016 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, Overwatch has released seven new characters. Even though Overwatch is a first-person shooter, all of those new characters haven’t focused on, you know, shooting people to death. Doomfist is all about punching people, Brigette uses a shield and flail, and Wrecking Ball is a freaking hamster (to be clear, I love him, but he’s offbeat).

Overwatch’s next character, Ashe, takes things back to basics. Blizzard revealed the gunslinger during the opening keynote for BlizzCon 2018 on Friday in Anaheim, California. I played Ashe, and the character is a fun and satisfying without having to rely on some of the out-there mechanics of other recent characters.
