Part Tasmanian Devil, part Crash Bandicoot, all World of Warcraft boss: Hogger is now a part of Heroes of the Storm as a playable character. Who would have thought! We just had to pick the brain of David Warner, senior game design...

[Update: It's Hogger! On the day of the new World of Warcraft expansion launch, we now have a new Warcraft character entering the Nexus soon. You can find his spotlight video below, as well as his patch notes here.] Although the n...

Where were you when Tony Hawk landed the 900? Where were you Danny Way jumped over the Great Wall of China? Where were you when I went over the half-pipe, through the secret room, collected the hidden tape, and grinded the quarter-pipe alo...

Hi-Rez Studios is seemingly putting all of their money-making power into Smite, locking up deals for some fairly huge IPs to appear in the game. They just recently hosted Avatar: The Last Airbender and now they're going down the nostalgia h...

Heroes of the Storm is a beast of a game. It's survived multiple directorial shifts and countless MOBAs have come and gone since it was initially released. It's also one of my most-played games of all time. Through thick and thin, the Heroe...

No, "Craft Wars" is not the latest hit reality show featuring dueling teams of art majors: it's the newest Heroes of the Storm event. It means exactly what it says, in that it combines Starcraft and Warcraft into one gam...

Once again, huge changes are coming to the very much alive Heroes of the Storm. Amid reworks for D.va and Gazlowe, the game is also eliminating Heroes Brawl (RIP and replacing it with ARAM (All Random All Middle). In case you forgot, Heroes...

Overwatch's D.va was introduced to Heroes of the Storm in mid-2017 to a mixed welcome. Although there are D.va fans out there and folks who can make her work, she's slowly lost favor with the general playerbase due to a mixed-flavor kit tha...

Just a few months ago, The Pokemon Company made a big deal about a special stream that would showcase an upcoming project, that a lot of people thought would involve the next generation of Pokemon or a remake of a beloved entry. Instead, it...

Heroes of the Storm has been down in the past, but not out. As someone who has played it nearly every week since its alpha, it's very hard to actually call it "down" actually. Although Blizzard unceremoniously declared that it was winding d...

"What can [one] do against such reckless hate?" is probably what the Heroes of the Storm developers were thinking after they unleashed the "weather anomaly" mechanic into the game several weeks ago. Although the hero Mei has been a bon...

Heroes of the Storm is coming up on its second year of "maintenance mode," an era in which Blizzard has greatly reduced the number of people on its development team and has dropped all official esports support. It's also still one of my mos...

After a long hiatus, both a tank hero and an Overwatch character have re-invaded Heroes of the Storm. Mei probably isn't the first pick for a lot of players when it comes to crossovers, but she slots in quite nicely with the crew ...

Remember when select people based an entire leak off of whether or not the "same tree" was found in a reflection? This is kind of like that, but in-game! Taking to Reddit, f1bermau5 shared a discovery that seems to imply that Heroes of the ...

Every so often, dreams do come true. A few years back, an artist came up with an idea for the "Janitor Leoric" skin for Heroes of the Storm, and Blizzard made it happen. Now, I hope the same miracle occurs for the similarly clever "Professo...

It's hard to believe that I've been playing Heroes of the Storm consistently, every month, since it was available in alpha form in 2014. I'd have to really think about it, but it might be my most-played non-MMO title of all time. ...

Yes, Heroes of the Storm is still around. Although I wish the development team had more resources and backing from Blizzard, the team that does remain is doing a fantastic job of keeping everything fresh, delivering new events, me...

Heroes of the Storm is continuing its "Nexus Anomaly" concept, which drastically alters various bits of the game as a form of experimentation to keep the game fresh. If the community takes a liking to a particular feature, it could sti...

[Update: Blizzard has extended the free hero period to April 13.] As publishers continue to fight for the attention of everyone currently quarantined due to coronavirus (COVID-19) concerns, more and more "free" offers are popping up on vari...

As promised, Blizzard just implemented the "Toys 2" event in Heroes of the Storm, which brings back the popular "Toys" celebration. The gist? You're getting a free pack of challenges that unlock cosmetics, as well as the always-popular...

2019 saw the release of four Champions for League of Legends thus far, a step up from 2018's three, and that's just dealing with League of Legends. Outside of their main cash cow, Riot is working hard on constantly updating the Auto-Ba...

I've been playing Heroes of the Storm for over four years now. There are very few games that manage to keep me captivated that long, but alas, the Heroes team managed to grab me where so many other MOBAs haven't. While others chase DOTA's f...

Battleborn, already dead for all intents and purposes, will be officially dead in a year's time. Gearbox's doomed hero-shooting MOBA will be taken offline in January 2021. 2K Games has revealed its plans to pull the plug on Battleborn's ser...

During the Heroes of the Storm deep dive panel at BlizzCon this week, the Heroes team took the opportunity to focus mostly on Deathwing, the "most requested hero ever," but there's a few tidbits near the end that will probably res...

[Update: Blizzard briefly acknowledged Heroes during the opening ceremony today, confirming that Deathwing is going to be free for BlizzCon pass holders. All heroes will be free until November 10.] Despite the fact that it doesn't get ...
