Baptiste

Coming out of approximately nowhere, Overwatch lead writer -- and Zork enthusiast -- Michael Chu decided to drop a new short story.

Hot on the heels of the new Baptiste short story comes the Reunion Challenge which awards you with a whole bunch of Overwatch goodies, including the Combat Medic skin we got a glimpse of yesterday.

In the short story What You Left Behind, Baptiste's past with Talon catches up to him, forcing him to question whether or not he's actually capable of doing good, while further expanding the lore of Overwatch.

You wouldn't know it from playing him, but Baptiste was created by mixing and matching other Overwatch hero mechanics.

Like it or not, Baptiste -- Overwatch's newest support hero -- won't drastically change the popularity of the GOATS, or 3-3, meta that you see so often in the Overwatch League when he arrives in Stage 2.

Sombra and Baptiste are good friends, and she's been keeping an eye on him ever since he left Talon.

Here's a look at all of Baptiste's new skins on the Overwatch PTR.

The latest Overwatch patch -- which includes new Support hero Baptiste -- has the biggest list of hero balance changes in the game's history.

Overwatch's new hero Baptiste has an ability that makes everyone within it invulnerable so -- naturally -- players have figured out its limits.

New hero Baptiste hit the Overwatch PTR today, so we jumped online to test out the newest Support hero.
