The Heroes of the Storm roster is getting a whack of StarCraft II loving lately thanks to the imminent release of Legacy of the Void. Fans of Blizzard’s MOBA have already received Lieutenant Morales – a Terran medic, and now, they’re about to get somebody a little more… offensive. Just this morning, the Spear of Adun pulled up to the Nexus, and dropped off none other than the Protoss protagonist, Artanis.

Thanks to the looming Legacy of the Void release, Heroes of the Storm is getting some much needed StarCraft II loving. Two characters from the RTS franchise, Lieutenant Morales and Artanis, will be joining the MOBA roster. The Terran medic will be available from today as a matter of fact, while Artanis will only be wondering into the Nexus much later, on October the 27th to be exact. Want to gain access to the Protoss warrior a little earlier though? You can – if you’ve pre-purchased the upcoming StarCraft II expansion.

StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void isn't just about new multiplayer. It's the ending to a five year trilogy that Blizzard has been setting up, and the Protoss are finally ready to fight back.

At Gamescom, we caught up with Dustin Browder and Kaeo Milker to talk Heroes of the Storm. We chatted about the new heroes, the new battleground, and what Blizzard are aiming to bring to their MOBA next!
