In a recent interview Colton Haynes, who plays Roy in Arrow, spoke about his character's storyline in season 3 of The CW series.
A "Never Seen Before" Avatar Of Arrow To Be Revealed In Season 3
The actor spoke to Den of Geek and while he didn't give too much away about the next chapter but suggested that a new character related to Roy's life might be coming back. As Roy and Thea had a bit of a falling out in the second episode, Roy will be dealing with missing her. Haynes revealed that someone from Roy's past will be returning on the show, and will help take his mind off of Thea.
"I can tease the possibility of someone from Roy's past coming in and taking Roy's mind off of Thea for a bit," he said. "And then there's the massive new characters coming in that the fans will know. I'm not sure how soon that'll be, but I think it'll be pretty early in the season."

It seems like this blast from the past would be a former lover, as only someone of that relevance could help blur Thea's memory for Roy.
A new promo for the show highlighting Ray Palmer aka The Atom, played by Brandon Routh was also recently released.
Palmer will eventually end up owning Queen Consolidated and there will be a whole lot of friction between him and Queen. In the promo, Palmer is introduced as Oliver looks a bit flustered walking into the offices and seeing a confident and domineering Palmer in his conference room. "I parked on your roof, hope that's OK? ... You guys valet, right?" Palmer informs Ray with a smidge of attitude.
The finale of season 2 of Arrow aired on May 14 on the CW. Season 3 premieres on October 8 on The CW.
