"Blizzard is going to reveal the next hero in earnest with a full trailer on April 8 at 12:00 p.m. ET, but the company has filled in her silhouette in the hero line-up it's been using to promote the game's relaunch."
"If you're a sicko who's been keeping up with all the extended lore, you know all of those features add up to sound like Frankie, a character who debuted in the novel Deadlock Rebels back in 2021."
"Blizzard has said that each hero that debuts over the next year will be tied to the ongoing story, and the Deadlock Gang that Frankie belongs to is wrapped up in Vendetta's crusade, which is at the center of this year's Talon-centric arc."
Blizzard is set to release a new hero every season in 2026, with the next hero's reveal scheduled for April 8, 2026. An illustration hints at a female character named Frankie, who has long braided hair, a beret, a cropped green vest, and a rifle, accompanied by a pink drone. Frankie, introduced in the novel Deadlock Rebels, is connected to the Deadlock Gang and the ongoing Vendetta storyline, suggesting her significance in the game's narrative.
