<p>Following her <a href="http://ift.tt/2lYw6QT">release for testers earlier this month</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/2nZpxdQ">Overwatch</a>&#8216;s newest hero, Moira, is now available to all players across<a href="http://ift.tt/2mUsZbd"> PlayStation 4</a>, <a href="http://ift.tt/2nK1ajp">Xbox One</a>, and <a href="http://ift.tt/2nKlIbK">PC</a>. The next time you boot up Overwatch you should see Moira available as the game&#8217;s 26th character.</p>
<p>Moira is mainly a healer. Her principal attack is called Biotic Grasp; it sprays a &quot;cone of energy&quot; that heals teammates in range. Her alternate fire is a beam that attaches to the nearest enemy, taking their health and dealing damage. Check out our in-depth video above to learn all about Moira and her skills and abilities.</p>
<p>The release of Moira comes just ahead of <a href="http://ift.tt/2hWUSwm">Overwatch&#8217;s free weekend that runs November 17-20 on all platforms</a>. Blizzard had<a href="http://ift.tt/2hWUSwm"> already suggested that Moira would be available in time for the event</a>, and we&#8217;re also expecting <a href="http://ift.tt/2hWUSwm">the new map, Blizzard World, to be available during the free weekend</a>.</p>
<p>GameSpot spoke with Overwatch principal designer Scott Mercer at BlizzCon about Moira and the new map Blizzard World. He talked about <a href="http://ift.tt/2zihalS">how Blizzard wanted to add another &quot;bad&quot; character to Overwatch</a>, and that&#8217;s where Moira came from.</p>
<p>&quot;She&#8217;s a scientist, but ethics aren&#8217;t her concern,&quot; Mercer said. &quot;She cares about the results; she cares about the discovery and the science. And with Talon, she doesn&#8217;t have to work around things as she might if she was back in Overwatch.&quot;</p>
<p>We also asked Blizzard if <a href="http://ift.tt/2zihalS">any of the Overwatch characters vape</a> because our <a href="http://ift.tt/2AbUCBa">thirst for vaping knowledge will run until the end of time.</a></p>
