An Overwatch 2 player came up with a new Ultimate for Kiriko that involves a motorcycle. The FPS grants a number of abilities for each character, which all depend on their roles. The abilities in Overwatch 2 are meant to help distinguish each character, which should help when choosing who to play.
All characters have an Ultimate ability that can help them make big plays. This includes D.Va being able to blow up her mech and Mercy being able to fly while having her abilities enhanced. A gamer came up with a unique Ultimate concept for Kiriko in Overwatch 2, and it allows her to become very mobile.
A Reddit user known as Rarithlynx posted a video featuring an Ultimate concept for the Support class Hero in Overwatch 2. In the video, Kiriko is seen running at three enemies standing in front of her. She stops and a motorcycle appears underneath her. She then uses it to ram into her opponents, taking all of them out with one hit. It is a cool Ultimate for Kiriko and brings up thoughts of the animated film Akira.
Reddit seems to be loving Rarithlynx's concept for Kiriko's Ultimate, having pushed the post to over 4,000 upvotes. A number of commenters bring up the fact that the video should have ended in the slide seen in Akira, though they have enjoyed the concept that Rarithlynx came up with regardless. A few Redditors brought up the idea of a racing mode in Overwatch 2 that will allow players to race each other while on Kiriko's bike, while one joked about a Grand Theft Auto title starring the character. The idea that the Ultimate should grant some kind of buff for her team came up, which would make sense considering she is a Support class Hero.
Rarithlynx's concept for a new Ultimate that Kiriko can use does bring up the idea of having more than one Ultimate for characters. Right now only one Hero technically has two Ultimate abilities, as D.Va can use hers the first time to blow up her mech and then use it again to summon a new one. Having the option to pick from multiple Ultimate abilities for every character could change how players choose their Hero, as well as how they play them when in-game. However, it is an idea that would have to be well-balanced, otherwise some abilities would be ignored entirely if they are not deemed useful by Overwatch 2's player base.
Overwatch 2 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
