Junker Queen’s Abilities
The badass Junker Queen acquires many unique abilities you can use in Overwatch 2. Let’s go over all of the confirmed powers revealed by Blizzard Entertainment.
Carnage
Since Junker Queen is the team’s Tank, she, of course, needs a weapon to match her ferocious personality. Her gigantic Axe named “Carnage” is the queen’s powerful weapon. It is excellent for close-combat fights with enemies and challenging situations with large groups. Additionally, if you listen closely as she puts away the Axe, you can hear the screech of a guitar that reflects her Rock style. Alongside Carnage is her primary weapon, Scattergun, which made an appearance in the Junker Queen Deep Dive and the trailer reveal. You can see a screenshot of its gameplay here:
Jagged Blade
Junker Queen’s Secondary Ability is Jagged Blade, a quick melee attack that swings her knife (nicknamed “Gracie”) instead of a standard punch. Performing this action damages not only opponents but also wounds them. Moreover, her Secondary Fire allows you to throw the blade to target moving enemies. If the weapon is stuck in your foes, you can pull them towards you to deal more damage.
Commanding Shout
One of the mentioned abilities from game developers is the Commanding Shout. Using this power boosts the speed and armor of your team. So, if you are in a difficult predicament, players can use the shout to the team’s advantage and successfully overcome the competition.
Rampage
As for her Ultimate ability, Junker Queen’s Rampage produces a whirlwind that can injure multiple enemies. Once activated, she will swing around her weapon and dash forward throughout Junkertown. The speed of the queen also wounds the enemies and boosts your health. In addition, Rampage debuffs foes and reduces their healing process. The game’s developers briefly explained another ability that drains the heroes and gives the character’s health back, but we have yet to see what this particular skill is.
The Voice Actor of Junker Queen
Leah de Niese is the confirmed voice actor of the Junker Queen. Blizzard Entertainment conducted a global search to find the perfect match for the character. In the end, the role was offered to Leah, whose voice is said to match the Junker Queen’s personality. The trailers and shorts released so far have showcased the actor’s talents, and we can’t wait to see more when Overwatch 2 releases.
