Leaked Overwatch 2 Hero Select Screen Shows Potential Soldier 76 Redesign
With Overwatch 2's PvP mode finally out for alpha testing, there is a light at the end of the tunnel for Overwatch fans that have been uneasily waiting for good news for the game's development. Even with those that gained access under NDA (non-disclosure agreements), there was bound to be a leak from the Overwatch 2 Alpha. That has occurred now and fans get to have a tiny look at what is to come in Overwatch 2.
The leaked image was posted to Imgur after it was seemingly first posted on the Overwatch League's Facebook page by mistake, but the post has been deleted. The image shows the Hero Select screen with the Overwatch 2 5v5 changes. The names on the screen are a bit hard to read, but one name is legible: McGravy. He is currently one of the assistant coaches of the Florida Mayhem in the Overwatch League. That tracks the legitimacy of the image as currently Overwatch League players, team staff, and other select individuals close to the vest at Blizzard would have access to the Overwatch 2 Alpha.

In the damage role, McGravy has selected Soldier: 76, but his character select model looks quite different than what he's looked like in the previous game. Soldier: 76 looks more aged and gruff that his appearance in Overwatch. Soldier: 76 has ditched the mask that covered most of his face in Overwatch and is sporting a thick white beard similar to Reinhardt's. The Overwatch team seems to have taken some liberties in redesigning his facial model for the character select screen. Character redesigns are not a surprise as the new game, being made for PC and consoles with improved capabilities, will be able to show more detail than fans have become accustomed to.
