Orisa is the newest hero in Overwatch and the first in the game’s diverse cast to represent the African continent. Orisa was created by a young genius Efi Oladele after an attack by Doomfist at the Numbani airport destroyed the city’s new line of defense robots called OR15s. Orisa is based on these models, which can still be seen smashed into the Numbani map.
Numbani is a fictional city set near Nigeria. It’s a haven for scientific discovery and a practical utopia, wherein omnics and humans live in harmony. Orisa was designed as a protector of this city, being constantly upgraded by her creator, Efi, as new problems arose.
Overwatch has a history of being accurate toward representing a multitude of cultures in the game, and this new tank’s design is no different.
