Brigitte, we hated you for enabling theGOATS meta. But all is forgiven with your new Jetpack Cat emote.

If you’re out of the loop, Jetpack Cat was revealed by game director, Jeff Kaplan, as a scrapped concept character back in a 2017 interview withGamespot.
“It was this jetpack and it had this cat that laid in it, like a cat does,” said Kaplan.
The character was scrapped, but was later introduced inBrigitte’s origin story video, which shows her building armor for her pet cat.
