After announcing the character earlier this month, and with Doomfist finding his way into the Overwatch PTR, players who haven’t had a chance to try him out in the PTR will be pleased and excited to learn that Doomfist is now playable in Overwatch for both PC and console gamers, so just update the game and you’ll be good to go!
For those learning about Doomfist for the first time, he is the latest character to be introduced into Overwatch. However what’s interesting is how the character was actually hinted at when Overwatch was first announced, and where his gauntlet was actually shown off in the cinematic trailer for the game.
It seemed that interest in the gauntlet was enough to inspire Blizzard to try and create a character around it, resulting in the version of Doomfist that we know today. Actor Terry Crews had also teased that Doomfist would be a new character to Overwatch and he even publicly campaigned to voice the character, but Blizzard ultimately went with a different voice actor instead.
For gamers who enjoy their characters being more melee than ranged, it seems like Doomfist could be a good choice, so update the game, fire it up, and get playing!
