As Overwatch players around the world take on Mercy’s Recall Challenge , there’s no time like the present to look back at Dr. Ziegler’s past and explore how this iconic hero became who she is today.
Years ago, when we were exploring ideas for what would eventually become Overwatch, one of the areas the development team had been focusing on was the concept of a class-based online shooter—an idea that stemmed from an unannounced game that had shuttered, codenamed Titan.
"We had a class meeting, where [lead hero designer of Overwatch] Geoff Goodman said something that just really. . . stuck with me,” game director Jeff Kaplan recalled during a 2017 BlizzCon panel. “‘I wish,’ he said, ‘instead of doing a game with six, or maybe nine classes, we could do a game with 50 classes. But I wish each of the classes was very focused, and had a certain set of abilities, and they could all be wildly different from one another.’”
The idea soon blossomed into a first-person shooter where the characters were more than just their classes; they would have backstories and names, identities inextricably tied to the rich world they inhabited. They would be heroes .
As the team revisited concepts from their past work, they drew inspiration from an early iteration of a healer class that had been called the Guardian. In Overwatch, this healer would ultimately become Mercy, a bastion of angelic serenity—but before she could complete her transformation, she first needed to become Angela Ziegler. She needed a story.
The horrors of war have hounded Angela Ziegler since childhood. When she was just a young girl, her mother and father met their end when an air strike decimated the local Swiss hospital they had been volunteering at in the wake of the Omnic Crisis. Despite this tragedy, Angela was consumed not by a thirst for revenge, but by a desire to aid the imperiled and advocate for peace.
Angela continued her parents’ legacy by pursuing a career in medicine. She earned a reputation as a young medical prodigy, went on to earn both her PhD and MD, and became head of surgery at a prominent Zurich hospital. Her research into applied nanobiology led to a scientific breakthrough that revolutionized medical care by healing wounds at a vastly accelerated rate and attracted the attention of Overwatch. Brought on board by the organization’s idealistic leader, Jack Morrison, Angela took up tenure as head medical researcher.
Despite Morrison’s word that her research would not be misused, Angela sometimes found herself at odds with the commander, and felt the technology she developed was being exploited and weaponized for war.
Despite her reservations, Angela continued her work for the common good, ultimately engineering the Valkyrie swift-response suit. Equipped with a scanning visor, propulsion system, and biotic charges, the suit allowed her to soar over the battlefield and quickly respond to medical crises on the frontlines. Angela went on to pilot this suit in a number of Overwatch strike team missions, notably during the King’s Row Uprising and in pursuit of the Talon agent Maximilien in Havana.
After the fall of Overwatch, Angela cast off the role of Mercy and reassumed her civilian identity as Dr. Ziegler, treating the downtrodden and dispossessed in different countries. Her guilt over the worldwide suffering caused by Overwatch led her to Egypt, where she aided the wounded despite their scorn for her and all that her former comrades had done to their country. There, as told in Michael Chu’s short story “Valkyrie,” the reappearance of familiar faces dredged up memories, and a threat forced her to take wing. Now she needed to make a choice—would she remain Dr. Ziegler, or would she answer Winston’s recall and once more don the mantle of Mercy?
As dramatic as Mercy’s backstory is, her design history has its own twists and turns.
Several of Overwatch’s most recognizable heroes came from earlier class-based concepts—notably Tracer’s predecessor, the Jumper; the Assassin that served as Genji’s prototype; Reaper, whose design and kit remained relatively constant from concept to realization; and the Guardian class that served as the basis for Mercy. The Guardian’s skills bore similarities to what Mercy’s are today, with abilities named Salvation and Resurrect making up the core of its kit, along with a Heal Beam and a weapon called the Stinger.
Though Overwatch’s Guardian Angel now sports gilded accents and a sleek, techno-seraph silhouette befitting of her benevolent moniker, her early look featured a few differences that were ultimately changed in her final design: a much larger staff, a red halo, and striking crimson cuisses. Her name, too, changed during the development of Overwatch; while she was pitched as Angelica, a hero whose kit included a Heal Beam, Teleport, and Resurrect, she later took on the name that had originally been Pharah’s—Mercy.
Now that you’ve learned more about the history of Angela Ziegler, you can fly into the fray as Mercy and earn her Dr. Ziegler skin in Mercy’s Recall Challenge . Through December 2, earn unique rewards by winning games and watching Overwatch on Twitch. Doctor’s orders!
Biography
Mercy, Age: 37
Occupation: Field Medic, First Responder
Base of Operations: Zürich, Switzerland
Affiliation: Overwatch (formerly)
Mercy’s Valkyrie Suit helps keep her close to teammates like a guardian angel; healing, resurrecting or strengthening them with the beams emanating from her Caduceus Staff.
Hold to increase an ally's damage inflicted.
Gain the ability to fly. Abilities are enhanced.
A guardian angel to those who come under her care, Dr. Angela Ziegler is a peerless healer, a brilliant scientist, and a staunch advocate for peace.
Ziegler rose to become the head of surgery at a prominent Swiss hospital before pioneering a breakthrough in the field of applied nanobiology that radically improved the treatment of life-threatening illnesses and injuries. It was this expertise that attracted the attention of Overwatch.
Because her parents had been taken by war, Ziegler was opposed to the organization's militaristic approach to keeping global peace. Ultimately, she recognized that Overwatch offered her the opportunity to save lives on a much larger scale. As Overwatch's head of medical research, Angela sought to leverage her work for healing in frontline crises. The result was the Valkyrie swift-response suit, which Ziegler herself piloted on many Overwatch missions.
Despite her contributions to Overwatch, she was often at odds with her superiors and the organization's overarching aims. When Overwatch dissolved, Ziegler dedicated herself to helping those affected by war.
Though she spends most of her time caring for the broken and dispossessed in crisis areas around the world, Dr. Ziegler can be counted on to don her Valkyrie suit whenever innocents are imperiled.

A guardian angel to those who come under her care, Dr. Angela Ziegler is a peerless healer, a brilliant scientist, and a staunch advocate for peace. She is one of the most gifted doctors in the world when it comes to medical technology, and has applied such technology to her own body; effects have possibly included slowing/halting her ageing process. She likes Swiss chocolate.
After obtaining her MD and PHD in Switzerland, Ziegler rose to become the head of surgery at a prominent Swiss hospital before pioneering a breakthrough in the field of applied nanobiology that radically improved the treatment of life-threatening illnesses and injuries. It was this expertise that attracted the attention of Overwatch.
Because her parents had been taken by war, Ziegler was opposed to the organization's militaristic approach to keeping global peace. Ultimately, she recognized that Overwatch offered her the opportunity to save lives on a much larger scale. As Overwatch's head of medical research, Angela sought to leverage her work for healing in frontline crises. The result was the Valkyrie swift-response suit, which Ziegler herself piloted on many Overwatch missions.
During her Overwatch years, she once dressed as a witch for Halloween.
Despite her contributions to Overwatch, she was often at odds with her superiors and the organization's overarching aims. One example was the development of the biotic rifle by Torbjörn . Torbjörn provided assurances that the device was only intended for healing, but Ziegler maintained that this was setting Overwatch down a road that could lead to the weaponization of biotic technology, and that she had only conducted research in the field on the condition that it would not be used for offensive purposes.
Seven years before the present day, Ziegler was involved in an unsanctioned mission authorized by Strike Commander Jack Morrison to end the King's Row Uprising in London, England. Earlier the same day, Ziegler argued with Morrison over Overwatch's inability to intervene in the conflict due to the English prime minister expressively forbidding of any Overwatch action within the United Kingdom. Dr. Ziegler expressed her concern for the thousands in the city who needed medical aid, and lamented how Overwatch was made to help people, not sit on the sidelines. After Jack authorized the mission, while preparing to board an aircraft, Ziegler welcomed Cadet Lena Oxton to the team. She commented on how her inspirational words convinced Jack to authorize the mission, and how he was very invested in her career, and had asked Ziegler to keep an eye on her. Zigler then told Oxton how she could call on her if she ever needed any help.
In Overwatch's final days, the group was faced with a series of allegations, and Ziegler was interrogated in the hearings conducted by the United Nations. In light of the fight between Overwatch members Jack Morrison and Gabriel Reyes , Ziegler admitted that the outcome had been inevitable. They had drifted further and further apart ever since Morrison had been chosen over Reyes for the position of strike commander, and that rift had widened despite her efforts.
When Overwatch dissolved, Ziegler dedicated herself to helping those affected by war. Though she spends most of her time caring for the broken and dispossessed in crisis areas around the world, Dr. Ziegler can be counted on to don her Valkyrie suit whenever innocents are imperiled, hoping to make a more peaceful world. She continued to work in medical facilities, but with less advanced technology than what she had access to within Overwatch.
When Winston issued a recall of Overwatch agents, Mercy was in the Middle East. Mercy was unsure if Overwatch should be restored.
