Gamescom had a lot revelations and new content for us to enjoy in all of the Blizzard worlds and I have a feeling we weren’t prepared for all of this…
The News

Starcraft 2
‘Allied Commanders is coming soon as part of StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void, bringing with it a variety of open-ended cooperative experiences to explore and conquer’
Co-op PvE Starcraft – looks like another new way to draw people into the game and also give the game extra longevity outside of Standard Multiplayer. Nice feature we think!
Heroes of the Storm
New heroes and new battleground have been annouced!
New Heroes:
- Kharazim – Monk – Support – Diablo (First Support from Diablo Universe)
- Rexxar – Beastmaster – Warrior – Warcraft
- Artanis – Protoss – Warrior – Starcraft (First Warrior from Starcraft)
- Medic – Unit – Support – Starcraft
New BG : Infernal Shrines
“Infernal Shrines is a three-lane Diablo-themed Battleground featuring three shrines that will periodically gather power. Teams can unleash this power by activating a shrine, defeating its guardians, and summoning a devastating Punisher to fight for them. These powerful bosses will spawn with one of three deadly affixes—Arcane, Frozen, or Mortar— and will hunt down nearby enemy Heroes as well as pushing the lane closest to their shrine.”
They added the lovely arcane spell that everyone loves in Diablo (if you got the item that makes you immune)
Hearthstone
New mechanic in Hearthstone, Jousting. New ranked rewards and new cards!
