"Jetpack Cat"[1] is an off-hand name to describe a canceled hero from Overwatch. As the name suggests, the hero was a cat in a jetpack, who controlled the device with its paws. It was decided that the cat would take things "too far," even for Overwatch, and the concept was scrapped. According to Jeff Kaplan, there was also the issue of seeing things when playing in first person from the cat, namely its paws on the controls.[2]
Kaplan mentioned the existence of "Jetpack Cat" in April, 2017. The interview and reception to the idea was noted by Michael Chu, who was not on the development team when the idea was pitched. He commented in a Reddit interview that "I've been thinking Torbjörn has a particuarly interesting cat, and who knows what stuff Torbjörn has lying around..."[1]
