From Polygon:

The first post-launch character coming to Overwatch is Ana, a support hero who uses her sniper rifle to heal her allies, Blizzard Entertainment revealed today. Blizzard describes Ana as a "battle-scarred veteran who supports her teammates from a distance using a unique and highly specialized collection of weapons."
Ana's primary weapon is her Biotic Rifle. The gun fires long-range darts that heal her allies and deal damage to her foes. She's also equipped with a Biotic Grenade. As seen in her debut gameplay video above, Ana's Biotic Grenade, like her rifle, heals teammates and damages enemies caught in its small area of effect. For a brief period, the grenade also boosts all incoming healing for allies and prevents enemies from being healed ? bad news for opposing Roadhog and Soldier: 76 players.
She'll also be armed with a Sleep Dart, which can knock enemies unconscious for a brief period. As seen in the above, expect many an ultimate ability to be summarily shut down by quick-thinking Ana players.
Ana's own ultimate, Nano Boost, sees her fire a dart at an ally and grant them faster movement, increased damage and improved resistance to incoming attacks.
In addition to showing how Overwatch's new character plays, Blizzard also delves into her backstory in a new origin video.

This looks crazy OP, but in the right hands ...

I wish I could snipe. lol.

Nevertheless, she looks cool. I definitely love the fact that she's a support, and can't wait to try her out.

I wish I could snipe. lol.

That fact won't stop the ungodly amount of people who'll automatically flock to the "ZOMG NEW" character the second she's released... I'm not bad at sniping, but let's just say some teammates who might have been desperate for that heal miiiiiight be missing a spleen or something at the hands of the enemy before my dart hits them...

I tried her on PTR. Sniping is almost never necessary on her, so you're good to go Jade~

This might actually be a fun support to play. Maybe I'll try it

 

[Typpi]

I always play supports (in League, WoW, Overwatch) so I'm excited for this new champion.

Comic time!

Apparently Ana and another Overwatch character have a little bit of history, and I'm not talking Morrison/76 or any of the other original team members...
