Blizzard’s hero shooter Overwatch released a total of three additional characters in the year since it launched in May 2016, teasing through in-game hints and in-universe lore blogs. The next hero is one we’ve been teased since the title’s very first cinematic trailer, when one of the boys takes a gauntlet that could “level a skyscraper” for his own stab at heroics. Fans, the wielder of that legendary glove is here: Doomfist has entered the fray.
Doomfist will go live on the (PC-only) PTR test servers before rolling into the main game in a few weeks. But then Everyone will get to enjoy his heavy-hitting kit, which looks to include crowd-control and area damage skills.
JOIN THE RESISTANCE IN FINAL FANTASY XIV: STORMBLOOD
LOS ANGELES – In case you missed it, or were off the grid, SQUARE ENIX® has launched FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood, the latest expansion of the critically-acclaimed MMORPG. This continues to capture the hearts and imaginations of over six million players worldwide.
FINAL FANTASY® XIV: Stormblood™ continues the story of the Warrior of Light in his quest to liberate Ala Mhigo, a vast land conquered by the Garleans twenty years ago. Players will also be able to depart from the shores of Eorzea for the very first time, travelling to the Far Eastern lands of Doma and Kugane as they fight to liberate those lands oppressed by the Empire.
Players can adventure together with seamless cross-platform play on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Windows PC, and Macintosh.
FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood Key Features
Two New Jobs: Samurai and Red Mage – The highly anticipated Samurai and Red Mage jobs make their debut in Stormblood. The DPS jobs introduce new fighting styles for players to enjoy—learn and master the art of “Sen” as the Samurai, or unleash hybrid magic and melee combos with the Red Mage’s Chainspell ability.
Level Cap Increase – The level cap for jobs and classes will be raised from 60 to 70. Players will need to make full use of the new powers at their disposal to defeat their Garlean adversaries.
Swimming and Diving – Explore Eorzea’s pristine waters with the addition of swimming and diving. Players will be able to journey deep into the depths upon completing special prerequisites.
New Beast Tribes and Primals – Players will encounter both the ancient Ananta, an all-female tribe who worship the primal Lakshmi in the mountains of Gyr Abania, and the Kojin—skilled traders residing in underwater settlements who worship the Lord of Revel, Susano.
Fourth Residential District – Shirogane, an island belonging to the Far Eastern nation of Hingashi: open to adventurers who frequent the port of Kugane. Those with a fondness for Far Eastern aesthetics will find it the perfect place to call home. Plots of land will be available for sale beginning with Patch 4.1.
