Overwatch Introduces Reinhardt, The Armored Tank

June 11, 2015 by Ian Miles Cheong

Reinhardt is one of the game’s tank characters.

Overwatch studio Blizzard Entertainment has put together a new gameplay video showcasing the game's newest announced character, Reinhardt, an old German soldier who lives inside a suit of armor.

The 61-year old military man is heavily armored, uses an energy shield that absorbs damage, and packs a punch with his trusty Rocket Hammer. He's one of the game's resident tank characters whose defensive playstyle allows him to soak up damage and protect fellow teammates. Reinhardt's Rocket Hammer can be swung for melee attacks, or whipped forward to throw fireballs. The character is also capable of performing a charge move that can deal a lot of damage if he pins an enemy to the wall.

Like every other character in the game, Reinhardt has an ultimate ability. His ultimate is called Earthshatter, which sees him slamming his Rocket Hammer into the ground and knocking down everyone in the area. 

Check out Reinhardt and his host of attacks in the newly released video above.
