Described as a "tempo tank," Ramattra will make an entrance to the game in the new season. His gameplay involves his Omnic form and Nemesis form. While in Omnic mode, Ramattra has a staff that can do poke damage and place a shield down to product his allies. In his Nemesis form, Ramattra bulks up with armor and two extra arms. He can then get through enemy shields and reduce damage by blocking attacks.
The new Shambali Monastery escort map will also be playable. Shambali Monastery was once the home of Ramattra and Zenyatta. According to Blizzard, the new map pool will include the return of Rialto and Blizzard World as well.
