If long range and high accuracy are your things, you might prefer the Deadlock Gang gunslinger, Ashe (and her right-hand man, Bob). Unlike the more niche Widowmaker, Ashe can step out of the shadows and onto the battlefield when necessary, where her dynamite and bestie Bob do a good job of keeping enemies at

While not a redhead in any other aspect but the game, Triss is a powerful sorceress who is never afraid to do what she needs to do to survive or save the Witcher from a difficult situation. Any time the player is in trouble, they can only hope to see the glimmer of bright red h

Fans who favor snipe-happy heroes such as Widowmaker might cry foul here. Yet, the more grounded, less mobile majority that includes Moira, Reinhardt, and Zenyatta (to name a few) tend to have a rough time with this expansive, open-ended map. The towering high ledges and open areas make it tough to mount successful defensives—or to navigate with much efficiency at a

Jumpers also seem to have an intense effect on friendly Omnics when destroyed, thanks to Overwatch 2's new chain-hit reactions system. One clip in Blizzard's video shows the player gunning down a Jumper, which then explodes and bowls into a group of Omnic Grunts. Sw

Overwatch is my favourite multiplayer shooter of all time, right up there with Halo 3. It’s also my favourite objective-based team game, which is why I have around 1,000 hours played in the first place. I used to regularly compete on teams with an average rank of high Diamond/low Masters, so I know what I’m doing. The thing is, Overwatch 2 Juno doesn’t reward you for that, which means every single game quickly becomes a massive pain in the a

The Borderlands trilogy features three of the most engaging co-op first-person shooters, augmented by an amazing-looking cel-shaded style that makes for a visual treat in every way. The third game might not be as great as many people expected it to be, but most people who love the elements of the Borderlands series will find this title to be perfect for t

But in online play - specifically, PvP - this isn’t how it works. Unless you’ve got a full six-stack made up of you and your friends, chances are people won’t care much about cooperating. And so, that entire aspect of Overwatch that I love - knowing my main inside out and fulfilling my role in tandem with the characters I’m surrounded by - dissipates into thin

The robots immediately attacked across the globe. Cities began to fall, as every country on the planet quickly learned that no matter how powerful their armies were, they were no chance against the Omnic threat. As the hour grew darker, the United Nations collaborated and formed an elite unit of their best soldiers. This super team would come to be known as Overwat

This Omnic, called the Behemoth, has yet to appear in any gameplay, but looks to be one of the most intimidating enemies in the Null Sector roster, right alongside the Artillery unit and the Titan. The Behemoth is said to appear on the Rio de Janeiro map in the upcoming seq

The follow-up to the hit hero-based shooter Overwatch has recently been announced by Blizzard , which has its millions of fans buzzing with anticipation and talks as to what fun new additions the game will contain. It's already been announced that Overwatch 2 will add to the already vast lineup of heroes, kicking things off with at least one new charac

Where she really shines is critical hits; with such high damage per shot, if she’s getting headshots, she’s getting eliminations. An accurate Ashe player can take down a band of bandits or what have you with the ease and style of Arthur Morgan using Deadeye in Red Dead Redemption

Regardless of whether players initiate a romance with her or not, Mitsuru is an iconic female redhead video game character whose personality develops as she reconciles with Yukari and makes her peace with her father's untimely demise. In battle, she uses status effects and ice abilities to punish any enemy foolish enough to stand in their

Coming straight out of the success of one of the most pivotal games in history, GoldenEye , Perfect Dark had a lot to live up to, especially since it was a while after GoldenEye's release. However, they ultimately succeeded with the game being a success as players were able to wipe out aliens as the badass fighter, Joanna D

Many will know her from the recent sequel, Horizon Forbidden West , or its even more popular predecessor, Horizon: Zero Dawn . This redhead is one of the most popular and well-known female characters in video gaming at the moment. She's a strong, powerful protagonist who has a wonderful storyline that spans two great video ga

Though this mechanical maestro may not be making waves in the competitive meta, he’s often a wonderful pick for PvE. If you played Overwatch’s Uprising event, you’ll know how useful he can be – his mix of armor and damage-dealing allow for adaptive play, and besides, with some keen placement, his turret is practically a second teamm
