For years, Overwatch fans have been anticipating the arrival of the Junker Queen to the game's roster of playable heroes. Blizzard itself has straight-up teased Junker Queen for the Overwatch roster, but the character has yet to make her debut. However, if a new "leak" is to be believed, it seems as though the company is prepping Junker Queen to appear in the upcoming Overwatch 2.

This leak stems from FefeGG, who is passing on information that they received from an anonymous source. Considering this, fans should definitely take this rumor with a massive grain of salt. But regardless, if the information is accurate, then it seems Overwatch 2 will have Junker Queen as part of its roster with the following abilities at her disposal.

According to the leak, Junker Queen in Overwatch 2 will use a shotgun-like weapon called the Scattergun as her primary weapon. The leak also claims that Junker Queen will be equipped with a sword that has a "bleed" effect on enemies to deal damage over time and can be thrown like a boomerang. Junker Queen's other abilities including a battle cry that buffs herself and her teammates, a Carnage ability that applies a bleeding effect to any enemies unlucky enough to be in its path, and an Adrenaline Shot that would give her some kind of passive self-healing ability. And finally, the leak claims that Junker Queen's Ultimate is called Rampage, and it allows her to keep her opponents from healing.

It's believed, based on the provided information, that Junker Queen will be a new Tank hero, though others seem to think she may actually be a Support hero. Until Blizzard itself decides to share more information, all fans can do is speculate based on the leaked info, but again, it should be treated with a healthy amount of skepticism. Even if the source of this latest Overwatch 2 leak is reliable, it's always possible that plans for Junker Queen have changed during development. After all, she's been rumored for the game for years and still has yet to make a proper appearance outside of posters of her plastered around the Junkertown map.

It remains to be seen if Junker Queen is truly coming to Overwatch 2. At the time of this writing, the only new Overwatch 2 hero players know is coming for sure is Sojourn. There will likely be more new heroes to accompany Overwatch 2's launch, but fans will have to stay tuned for more information on that front.

Overwatch 2 is in development.
