While Overwatch may have seen its last hero update with Echo, it looks Paladins is still keen on adding more heroes to their roster. Just in, they’ve announced the arrival of Vora, a ‘herald of chaos’ that seems like the perfect hero for the Halloween season.

Check her out:

Here’s the official description:

Vora once was a loyal guardian, devoting her life to the Goddess who protected her in return. So when evil struck she felt betrayed, forsaken. In despair, she chose a bloodier path and her story became one of vengeance. Against her former Goddess’ moonlight, she now wields darkness. Vora is the herald of chaos.

With Paladins' frequent comparisons to Overwatch, it is kind of funny how this scythe-wielding character has a voiceover that sounds awfully like Reaper; the fact that she’s also wielding a scythe feels kind of on the nose.

We don’t know what the exact play-style for Vora is yet, but by the looks of it, she could have speedy teleportation powers which will allow for good coverage of the battlefield. Her attacks could also mostly be melee, and having her very mobile is a good balance to that. We should expect a full breakdown of her abilities within the week.

Despite the Overwatch comparisons, Paladins manages to set itself apart with great characters and engaging gameplay. With Overwatch 2 on the way, you can’t help but think what else Evil Mojo and Hi-Rez have in store for this shooter title.

Vora becomes available this coming October. Paladins is now playable for PS4, PC, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
