Overwatch 2 Vendetta voice lines

Vendetta is the daughter of former Talon leader Antonio Bartalotti, who was killed by commander Gabriel Reyes of Blackwatch during the Retribution mission. Blackwatch used to be Overwatch's covert ops division. The Blackwatch members in Vendetta's introduction cinematic and the Retribution mission included Gabriel Reyes, Cole Cassidy, Genji Shimada, and Moira O'Deorain as well. And after the fall of Overwatch, Gabriel Reyes became Reaper.

All of this lore and story makes Vendetta's hero interactions in Overwatch 2 quite interesting. For example, when we eliminated Vendetta as Cassidy, the former Blackwatch member sighed and said, "All these years, still cleaning up after Reyes."
