<\/figcaption><\/figure>According to the Overwatch website, Sombra wields an array of disabling and mobility abilities from the offensive role. Armed with a fully-automatic machine pistol for damage, Sombra can hack enemies to disable their abilities. She can also disable health packs to keep enemies from using them.<\/p>
Sombra is also highly slippery with high mobility and the ability to sneak into enemy back lines. Thermoptic Camo allows her to become invisible for a short period of time, boosting her speed considerably. She can then place or throw a Translocator, which she can return to at any time?\u2014?even in mid-air. Finally, her ultimate, EMP, destroys enemy barriers and shields, preventing ability use from those caught in the blast in the process.<\/p>

The company will also add a new feature known as the arcade which will allow players to compete in unique game modes and maps for a different gaming experience compared to the standard game modes the game<\/p>
