Critically, Echo had multiple layers of protections, failsafes, and security to keep it under control. She dreamed of improving upon the original omnic designs.

Echo was used successfully on test missions alongside Overwatch strike teams, but Overwatch leadership was reluctant to put it into full service.However, the truth was that Liao had programmed Echo with a powerful, general artificial intelligence that learned by observation. But as she is exposed to new people, new ideas, and new situations without Dr. Liao to guide her, no one knows how she might evolve in the future.

For the former, Garnett chose tonal, whiny noises that sounded like a footstep presence, rooting her as being physical, but sounding less physical as she got further away.

Echo is an evolutionary robot programmed with a rapidly adapting artificial intelligence, versatile enough to fill multiple battlefield combat roles.

Echo is an evolutionary robot programmed with a rapidly adapting artificial intelligence, versatile enough to fill multiple battlefield combat roles.Echo fires a volley of sticky bombs that detonates after a delay.Echo channels a beam for a few seconds, dealing very high damage to targets with less than half health.Echo duplicates a targeted enemy hero and gains use of their abilities.To chart the origins of the Echo project, it is important to delve into the personal history of Singaporean scientist Dr. Mina Liao, who would later become perhaps best known as one of the founding members of Overwatch.

As an adaptive robot who can replicate the likenesses and abilities of others, her voice lines opened an avenue of expression distinct from all of the game's other heroes. But prior to joining the organization, Dr. Liao was widely considered one of the preeminent experts in the fields of robotics and artificial intelligence, and an employee of Omnica Corporation. This secret that was known by very few, including When Liao was killed in attack on an Overwatch facility, Overwatch's leadership was reluctant to continue pursuing such a dangerous projectEcho, initially named Iris, was first conceived as a hero for In early concept art for Echo, her design featured both the In October 2019, Echo was seen among other heroes in leaked In March 2020, she was announced to be the 32nd playable hero in the game.Echo has over 750 voice lines, accounting for both her own lines, and duplicated lines from other characters.

After thousands of hours in the scientist's presence, much of Liao’s behaviors (including her speech), were adopted by the Echo robot. The developers started with some key words and phrases.

Echo Origin Story is an animated short released on March 18, 2020, the day Echo was announced.

There she worked on the team that was responsible for the design and creation of the omnics that would ultimately wage war against humanity during the Omnic Crisis.

When Liao was killed in attack on an Overwatch facility, Overwatch’s leadership was reluctant to continue pursuing such a dangerous project, and all development on Echo was shut down, and the robot was placed into quarantine.Having joined up with the new Overwatch team to defend Paris against the Null Sector incursion, for the first time, Echo is seeing action as a full-fledged team member.

These theories would become the foundation of the Echo project. After thousands of hours in the scientist’s presence, much of Liao’s behaviors (including her speech), were adopted by the Echo robot. An evolutionary robot programmed with a rapidly adapting artificial intelligence, Echo represents the cutting edge of technology. After nailing down the core aspects of Echo's sound palette, Garnett then addressed the implementation of her voice acting.

Even that catastrophe was not enough to dissuade Liao of her firmly held belief in the potential artificial life and its power to transform the lives of humanity for the better.

Once her cinematic feel had been defined, the team’s challenge became how they would take Echo’s fleeting appearance in a cinematic and expand it into a medley of audio bites?
