Activision Blizzard has revealed that the latest Support hero for Overwatch 2 is Juno. In addition, she will be available as a limited time trial from July 19-21, 2024, ahead of her full release in August.
Juno was previously teased as a new Overwatch 2 hero at BlizzCon 2023 under the codename Space Ranger, but now she has received a full gameplay trailer. Hailing from a Mars colony, her moveset is based around sci-fi technology. Juno will be released as part of Season 20 on August 20, 2024, but players will be able to try her out on July 19-21, 2024, where she will be available as part of a limited trial.
Her primary fire is the Mediblaster, a burst fire weapon, while her secondary fire is the Pulsar Torpedoes, which are homing missiles. She can also double jump and perform a horizontal glide thanks to her Martian Overboots and deploy a Hyper Ring that can increase ally movement. Her Ultimate is the Orbital Ray, a laser that fires from space and travels forward. All her abilities will damage enemies while healing allies.
Activision Blizzard also revealed the voice actor for Juno. She will be voiced by Xanthe Huynh, whose previous credits include Haru in Persona 5, Pela in Honkai: Star Rail and Marianne in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Juno is the latest hero to be revealed for Overwatch 2. The previous character to be added to the cast was Venture, a Damage focused hero released in Apil 2024.
