New 'Overwatch' Character Rumored To Be The Young Scientist Efi Oladele

"Overwatch" fans might be looking forward to another mystery character after the game's official blog posted something of high interest with its fictional news outlet called Atlas News. It may or may not have something to do with Doomfist, but fans speculate that they will be seeing a new character in action named Efi Oladele.

As reported at PVP Live, Efi Oladele made her first appearance on the Atlas News. The kid, aged 11, was interviewed regarding her amazing works regarding AI and robotics. She has appeared to be the winner of the award called "Genius Grant" from Adawe Foundation.

There have been a lot of buzz regarding the 24th hero in "Overwatch," which definitely doesn't seem like the Doomfist, everybody is clamoring about. However, considering here as a new hero on her way to the battlefield in the game may still take with a grain of salt, especially the fact that she's only 11 and getting kids to fight in such portrayal may prove to be a tricky business.

Still, the interview writes up teases fans, one way or the other and if overlooking the technical side of including her in the roster could be done, what have been said could prove to be an interesting partial introduction to "Overwatch."

When asked regarding what her plans are after getting the grant, she simply dismissed the idea of getting to college or even tuition. Efi teased that she has her own plans, but she's keeping it as a secret for the meantime.

Efi could simply create a robot that would fight for her, which also makes a good excuse not to put her on the battlefield. Another possibility is that she could simply be the one behind another character, which will be a good candidate for being the 24th hero. There are tons of possibilities, but fans will surely find out more as Blizzard pushes through her character sooner or later in "Overwatch."
