Upon opening Overwatch to do my lunchtime dailies (this sans-2 reboot has truly rotted my brain and returned me to my 2016 lifestyle) I had a little poke around the menus to see the addition of a very bizarre Arcade mode: ;ASKLDFAL;S C;A.
Did someone at Blizzard Team 4 goof? Has a line of code caused a little hiccup somewhere, showing me this bizarre amalgamation of characters instead of whatever this mystery mode is supposed to be called? Oh, wait, nope. It's an incredibly silly 6v6 mode all about one of the newest additions to its roster, Jetpack Cat. Classic feline keyboard shenanigans included.
In case you haven't been flung back into the hero shooter mines, Jetpack Cat is one of five new heroes to emerge alongside the grand Overwatch reboot—the one that also saw it drop the "2" in its name, do a big ol' UI overhaul, and kick off a year-long narrative arc. She is an absolute menace, for starters. A wee kitty who can fly around and carry her allies. Yes, that means airborne Cassidy ults and dropping a traditionally slow Reinhardt right into the enemy team in about five seconds flat.
