Overwatch 2 Junker Queen kit leak
Let's begin with Junker Queen's weapon. It has been claimed that her primary weapon is a shotgun known as the "Scattergun". The Junker Queen also carries a sword-like melee weapon with a bleeding effect that deals damage over time.
This Junker Queen's sword also includes a boomerang ability, as per the leaked info, where she may throw it back and possibly boop adversaries as it travels back to her.
Then we have Junker Queen's abilities, with the Rallying Call ability listed as the first one. According to the leaker, the "rallying call" ability of Junker Queen buffs herself and her teammates. This ability gives her an additional 200 HP and her teammates get an additional 100 HP.
It also gives a 30% speed buff but it is unclear whether this is applied only to herself or also to teammates.
The next one of the Junker Queen's abilities is the "carnage" ability that deals damage to all enemies in front of her with a bleeding effect. However, we have no information on how much damage this ability does over time.

Apart from these, the leaker also detailed Junker Queen's passive ability.
An "adrenaline shot" is Junker Queen's passive ability that heals all damage that is done through bleeding effect (could be extended to fire damage (dynamite) or poison damage (venom mine) too).
Then at last we have Junker Queen's ultimate ability, the "rampage" ultimate where she charges in front of her dealing anti-healing (like anti-nade it seems) to enemies all the while healing herself.
Despite all the data, the leaker wasn't sure of the exact role of Junker Queen as there are two potential options: support or a tank. However, by the looks of Junker Queen's kit, she seems more of a tank than support.
Whatever be the case, it is suggested to take these reports with a grain of salt, even if this may be our first look at an OW2 hero Junker Queen's kit.

And now it appears that he was right and the Junker Queen will be released soon.
