The world could always use more heroes, and Jetpack Cat might just be the hero it needs right now.
Jetpack Cat, also known as Fika, joined Overwatch on Feb. 10 and has since been up to hilarious shenanigans in matches. Players who have been following Jetpack Cat's release may already know of her lore and story as well. However, Overwatch just released a new video featuring her and Brigitte!
Overwatch Jetpack Cat lore and origin story
Voiced by Matilda Smedius, who is Brigitte's voice actor, "Project: Jetpack Katt," is the new Overwatch Jetpack Cat story. In this story, Brigitte reveals that with Null Sector gone, the team at Gibraltar doesn't have much to do. However, Brigitte herself has her hands full thanks to a stowaway she rescued in the main landing bay.
Brigitte then recalls some ideas from her childhood, looking at some old sketches to turn a childhood dream into reality.
"Fika has been an surprising help. Oh, I named her 'Fika,' by the way -- since she looks like a big kanelbulle," Brigitte says, referring to a Swedish cinnamon bun.
Brigitte also describes in detail how she's going about creating a jetpack for Fika. In the end, she believes that Fika is a great addition to Overwatch.
"A cat in a jetpack seems crazy even by our team's standards," Brigitte says. "But... who knows? We keep saying 'The world could always use more heroes,'" I think she might be just the hero the world needs right now."
