Overwatch 2’s newest Support hero: All we know

The short trailer for Invasion was posted on the game's media handles, and it gave fans an overview of the features to expect in this massive content drop, including a first look at the newest hero joining the roster in Season 6.

Towards the very end of the trailer, a five-second teaser is shown (as presented by Twitter user @OverwatchNaeri), where the newest Support hero is silhouetted against a bright flare. Considering her pose is in front of what is presumably the sun and what appears to be a crown-shaped ornament, complemented by the obvious cape, we can assume that she might be someone of royal stature, like a queen.

Twitter user @kunaionly has enhanced the image, revealing her facial features and offering a better look at her character design. There is a crown-shaped object on her forehead, and she is also holding a wide and flat weapon, which is most likely her ultimate or primary weapon.
