Heroes of the Storm 2.0 and Cassia Revealed

by on Mar 29, 2017

Blizzard reveal a major new milestone for Heroes of the Storm alongside a new hero.

Since it launched Heroes of the Storm has gone from strength to strength so we're ecstatic to see that 2.0 brings a major overhaul to some of its key systems including hero progression, loot and how players go obtain obtaining cosmetic items. Following the Overwatch blueprint for rewarding players, 2.0 includes:

Hero voice lines Voice Packs Chat emojis Player portraits Banners that unfurl at objectives Sprays (similar to Overwatch)

Not only this but hero progression has been totally reworked and level caps have also been removed. Each hero level now rewards a loot crate, with players having the opportunity to re-roll on such crates by spending their gold. Best of all, players will be retrospectively rewarded for all their existing hero levels - including loot crates.

If that wasn't enough (seriously, watch the video!) there's also a new ranged assassin on the way born from Diablo 2: Cassia. Her video is below and expect our guide soon.
