Since Overwatch Developers has been known for its unorthodox approach in dropping updates, fans are left hanging with what to expect.

Anchora was the first hero speculated to come as the 24th hero for Overwatch. Anchora is a codename for a tank quadruped speculated to possess the ability to walk through walls and obstacles, and fire shockwaves to its enemies. Anchora was on top of the headlines for Overwatch after fans seeing a leaked photo of giant mechanical spider many speculated to be a strong connection to Anchora. Again, Developer, Jeff Kaplan turned down this allegation saying the next Overwatch hero is "not who you think it is," says Kaplan in the recent DICE summit.

The official Overwatch website feature Efi Oladele from Numbani, a robotic science prodigy. Many again believe she is the 24th hero for Overwatch. This speculation heightened its possibilities when Overwatch released a teaser trailer regarding the unexpected encounter between Efi and Doomfist in Numbani Airport.

When many believed and assured that Efi is the 24th Overwatch hero, a cross-examination claiming Doomfist might be the next Overwatch hero rising. A tweet by Overwatch saying "the Doomfist Gauntlet is gone" opens a possibility that Doomfist caused the attack in Numbani Airport.
