Watch us play Doomfist in Overwatch: Blizzard’s Street Fighter hero

Blizzard finally revealed that Doomfist is the next character in its class-based hero shooter Overwatch, and we have spent some time with the melee striker on the game’s test server. He is an attacker with a variety of fist-based moves including the charging Rocket Punch, the stunning Seismic Slam, and the Street Fighter-like Rising Uppercut.

As you might gather from that arsenal, Doomfist is a fighting-game character put into a shooter. And like a character from a classic fighter, Doomfist seems to do best when he is chaining together combos. His basic attack is a shotgun-like blast from his Hand Cannon, which is powerful when in close. But that attack seems like it works best when you pepper it between the slam, charge, or uppercut.
