She has the ability to throw out Kiba Barriers, a bulletproof blob which looks like instant-drying cement you can throw over holes or to fortify a wall. A permanent Team Deathmatch mode is due in Demon Veil too.

The plan.

Season 2 will bring a Belgian character and a Team Deathmatch map set in Greece. Season 3 will give us a new Operator from Singapore and a new competive map set in parts unknown. Then Season 4 will add an Operator from Colombia.

Other plans for Year 7 include a gradual rollout of systems overall aimed to improve behaviour with features to detect griefing, intentional friendly fire, harrassment, and more. To make the game friendlier to newcomers in particular, Ubisoft plan to add a shooting range to practice without burdening others as well as a series of Operator Tips to better explain wizards and strategies.
