Brigitte, the daughter of Torbjorn, has been in testing since February 28 with Kaplan saying the testing has gone very well. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Testing has been awesome,&#8221; Kaplan said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You all have been a huge help. Probably not this week [for her release], but she&#8217;s looking good. Almost ready.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The delay in bringing Brigitte live to the game is not surprising to many people. They explain new Overwatch heroes usually spend a number of weeks on the game\u2019s test server before they are released into live games, and this appears to be what is happening with Brigitte. <\/p>\n<p>Several teasers posted on the company\u2019s Twitter account hinted that the new <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/overwatch\/betting\/\" title=\"How to bet on Overwatch\">Overwatch<\/a> hero will be a great delight when eventually released into live games.<\/p>\n<p>With the pending release of Brigitte, Overwatch players with PC can test how Brigitte performs against earlier heroes before her release next week and give feedback to producers.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Chu, lead writer for Overwatch has been tasked with gathering Brigitte lore questions on various media channels. He uses #BrigitteLore as the hashtag to collect the questions from Overwatch fans and enthusiasts. <\/p>\n<p>He will also be on hand to personally address these questions in an upcoming Q &#038; A blog. When this will commence however remains unknown at the moment. But it is expected that the questions and answers sessions will soon be hosted on Overwatch\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>With Brigitte to be the 27th Overwatch hero, fans expectations are high that she will be a great success. But for Kaplan and crew no doubt there will be some anxious moments as she is released. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overwatch game director Jeff Kaplan has revealed new hero Brigitte will enter the live game on March 20.
