Overwatch 2 players are buzzing with excitement as they believe they have discovered hints about the next tank hero coming to the game. The recent addition of Season Seven stickers featuring Mauga, a tank from Overwatch 2’s lore and Baptiste’s brother-in-arms, has sparked speculation among the community. Many players are convinced that Blizzard is teasing Mauga’s upcoming release in an upcoming season.
It is important to note that Blizzard has not made any official announcements regarding this matter. Dot Esports has reached out to Blizzard for confirmation on whether these stickers are indeed teasers for a new hero.
Mauga first appeared in the Overwatch storyline in 2019 in the short story “What You Left Behind.” The story delved into Baptiste’s questionable past and introduced Mauga as his loyal companion. Since then, Mauga has been an integral part of Baptiste’s shady history and has become a highly anticipated tank hero among Overwatch 2 fans.
While these stickers were initially available as rewards during the Baptiste Reunion Challenge in 2019, fans have noticed a change. The stickers have now been moved to the Season Seven tab, leading some to believe that this is a significant clue.
However, there are also skeptics who caution against getting too excited. They suggest that Blizzard may surprise the fandom with a completely new character instead of Mauga. Nevertheless, Mauga remains a popular choice among Overwatch 2 fans, and discussions and speculations about the next hero will likely continue until Blizzard unveils their newest addition.
Blizzard typically keeps their upcoming hero releases under wraps until they are ready to reveal them. So, for now, fans will have to wait patiently for any official news or hints about the next tank hero in Overwatch 2.
