"Reactions to, and subsequent confusion over, the post about Juno have prompted calls for Activision Blizzard to make it so."
"Its slogan, branded on the banner of the subreddit in rainbow colours, reads: "Everybody is welcome. Except gamers.""
There was recent confusion regarding Overwatch 2 character Juno's gender identity due to a satirical Reddit post claiming she was transgender, which was later debunked. Juno, introduced as the game's 41st hero, is known for her support abilities, marked as the first human born on Mars. The misinformation originated from r/Gamingcirclejerk, a subreddit known for spreading jokes and pranks about gaming. Despite the rumor, Activision Blizzard has not confirmed Juno's gender identity, leading to calls within the community for greater representation in character diversity.
