During the recent Overwatch 2 Spotlight event, Blizzard unveiled Hero 44, codenamed Aqua.

Aqua is a Chinese character known for his unique water-based abilities.

Senior narrative designer Jude Stacey highlighted Aqua's distinct ability set, which sets him apart from previous heroes.

Blizzard has designed Aqua's abilities to manipulate the battlefield, promising an innovative playstyle.

Concept art released during the event showcased Aqua in various poses, reflecting a theme of 'flowing clouds, flowing water' in Chinese.

Aqua is scheduled for release in Overwatch 2 Season 18, following the introduction of Freja in Season 16.

More details about Aqua's abilities and gameplay will be shared later in 2025, ahead of his official release.
