Overwatch 2 players have spent countless hours in the game trying to find hints about the next Hero. A piece of in-game art has been spotted on Overwatch 2’s New York Map situated inside the attacker's spawn. The picture depicts a person fighting off a large number of enemies with a tray of sorts while wearing a chef’s costume.

The community suspects this art is a direct hint that points towards the release of an Italian Hero in one of the upcoming seasonal updates. With that in mind, let's take a look at what fans of Overwatch 2 had to say about the image uploaded by crazyhalfpintguinea on January 14.
