"At the beginning of the mission, Reaper kills a man named Antonio Bartalotti, a criminal and member of the chaos-seeding Talon organization. This assassination sets up the mission players fight through, as well as the eventual downfall of the Overwatch organization, but as we learned today, over seven years later, it was also a canon event for Overwatch 2 's next hero, Vendetta."
"Blizzard has released a new animated trailer titled La Lupa which shows Vendetta, a new, sword-wielding hero, fighting a massive Omnic in Colosseo to the tune of hundreds of less-than-adoring fans. In her voiceover, she's talking to her Papa who taught her how to outsmart her opponents, whether that be in Chess or in a coliseum. Then the trailer reveals that her father was none other than Antonio."
Overwatch 2's original cooperative missions included a Blackwatch operation where Reaper kills Antonio Bartalotti, a criminal and Talon member. That assassination shaped a mission and contributed to Overwatch's downfall and later became canon to a new hero. Vendetta is revealed as Antonio's daughter and appears in an animated trailer titled La Lupa confronting a massive Omnic in Colosseo while narrating lessons from her Papa. Vendetta wields a sword and appears tank-like and melee-focused. Blizzard will run a trial for Vendetta from November 6 to December 1. Vendetta joins the roster officially in Season 20 on December 9.
