Overwatch’s Zarya and Starcraft’s Warhead Junction join Heroes of the Storm

Not long after jumping into battle in the Overwatch arena, Zarya has decided to offer her services to those in need in Heroes of the Storm.

A tank class character, Zarya uses her Particle Grenade to destroy enemies and buildings, Shield Ally to nearby friendlies and Personal Barrier to protect herself. Her two Heroics are Graviton Surge and Expulsion Zone; the former drawing all nearby enemies together and the latter knocking them back while slowing them down.

Warhead Junction is Heroes of the Storm’s new Starcraft themed map, located on a disused nuclear testing facility. Players are able to collect the nukes strewn about the map and use them to decimate their opponents.

Heroes of the Storm is available now.
