The developers of Overwatch 2 describe Kiriko as a “battle healer” in that she really wants to be in the main part of things, moving in and out while healing and dealing damage both in a half breed job. Her primary ability, Healing Ofuda, fires ofuda that home on allies to heal them. Her secondary fire throws a kunai that deals increased critical damage. And while her Security Suzu ability could seem unquestionably strong at first blush, granting invulnerability and a cleansing impact, it is brief and also features a relatively lengthy cooldown.
It merits stressing, nonetheless, that Kiriko won’t be immediately available to all players. Anyone that plays Overwatch 2 will have immediate access to both Junker Sovereign and Sojourn, yet Kiriko specifically is part of the forthcoming computer game’s free Battle Pass. Future new heroes will also work this way. She unlocks at level 55 on it, yet anyone that owns the original Overwatch will help Kiriko through their Organizer’s Pack, which can be reclaimed by signing into Overwatch 2 preceding the finish of Season 2. Also, anyone that purchases the Top notch Battle Pass for the first season will instantly open Kiriko. That said, she won’t be available in that frame of mind at the start yet instead will open up two weeks after the first season begins – – which is the way new heroes will work proceeding.
As indicated above, Overwatch 2 is set to release, allowed to play, for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC on October fourth. New heroes available at launch incorporate Junker Sovereign, Sojourn, and Kiriko. You can check out all of our previous coverage of the forthcoming sequel computer game here.
