Every Overwatch 2 hero's age and sexuality

Overwatch 2 has an extremely diverse and ever-expanding cast of playable characters, from the energetic Tracer to the dark and mysterious Reaper. However, the thing that sets Overwatch 2 apart from most other games is how players are able to connect with and relate to their favorite characters.

Now, connecting to a character doesn’t necessarily have to be through their personality and appearance. On the contrary, most people actually relate to fictional characters if they share the same age or sexuality with them. So, we thought we’d zone in on that exact relation for today’s article.

Today, we’re here to go through every Overwatch 2 hero’s age and sexuality so you know more about your favorite playable character.
