<p>Another Talon member enters the ever growing list of heroes in <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/overwatch/">Overwatch</a>. Hero 31, nicknamed Sigma, is a former astrophysicist trapped in a constant battle with the laws of science and himself after encountering a catastrophic Space accident.</p>

<p>Its reveal trailer showed some of the Hero’s personality, bringing the concept of real insanity and mad scientists to the table.</p> 

<p>Speaking of shifting the meta, Sigma is an exceptional tank hero. His abilities include a defensive move called Kinetic Grasp which absorbs damage and projectiles to convert into protective shields for himself. Accretion is a heavy attack that lets him throw a massive boulder to his enemies with knockback. Experimental Shield sends out a projectile shield akin to Orisa’s that can protect his allies with 1,500 Health.</p> 

<p>In addition to that, his main attack is called the Hyper Spheres, a low-damage mid-range projectile similar to Zenyatta’s orbs, but can ricochet through walls and deal blast damage.</p> 

<p>Finally, his ultimate ability is the Gravitic Flux, a Black Hole that can send his enemies into the air and slam them down, dealing massive damage.</p> 

<p>Hero 31 is but the first of the many ‘teased’ Overwatch heroes coming out this year.</p> 

<p>You can test sigma out on the PTR (Public Test Region) right now and play with others. Unfortunately, the PTR is only available for PC users. PlayStation 4 and Xbox One users might have to wait before they can test out Talon’s powerful weapon of mass destruction.</p>
