Baptiste is the first hero to be added in 2019 and the 7th support hero in Overwatch who uses a rifle similar to Ana's to heal allies from a distance. His weapon, the Biotic Launcher, is a hitscan rifle that can inflict damage on his target with 3-round-bursts, but it can also fire healing biotic projectiles; the projectile heals all allies within an AoE.

He has two skills, ‘Regenerative Burst' and ‘Immortality Field'. ‘Regenerative Burst' continuously heals Baptiste and nearby allies over time, similar to Brigitte's Inspire or Lucio's Amp It Up.
