Juno (Overwatch)

Juno Teo Minh is a character who first appeared in the 2023 video game Overwatch, a Blizzard Entertainment–developed first-person hero shooter, added to the game's roster in a 2024 update. Designed by Daryl Tan, she is a "Support"-class hero. A woman of Vietnamese heritage, Juno was born in a human colony on Mars, and comes to Earth seeking help for her colony which is suffering from diminishing supplies. In the game and related media for the franchise, she is voiced by Xanthe Huynh. The character has been well received by video game writers and players alike. She has become one of the franchise's more popular characters among those introduced in the sequel, with her in-game pick rate by players noted to be high. Juno's in-game mechanics have also been well received by video game journalists, who have praised her character for rewarding a player's game sense. However, some criticism has been levied toward the character's design due to perceptions of whitewashing of her East Asian features, and complaints of oversexualization.
