Overwatch’s new mech hero is the sword-and-board sequel to D.Va, except her code isn’t ‘a plate of spaghetti’ under the hood

In 2018, Blizzard Entertainment's game director Aaron Keller described D.Va's programming as complex, leading to amusing bugs during her mech transitions. D.Mon is a new character in the MEKA Squad, designed for sturdiness and versatility, capable of dashing in any direction with limited fuel and equipped with a mounted machine gun. When she raises her shield, she resembles Reinhardt but has a speed advantage and a unique charge ability. D.Mon's ultimate ability, Limit Break, unleashes a whirlwind slash that increases enemy damage taken and grants her overhealth. A notable gameplay moment occurs when she is ejected from her mech, with an animation reminiscent of Voltron. D.Mon will debut in season 4 on August 11.
