Wage war with the most powerful heroes from Blizzard Entertainment’s game universes in the explosive multiplayer game Heroes of the Storm, based on the classic and hugely influential Defense of the Ancients game MOD. Heroes of the Storm is a team-based competitive game in which each player controls a powerful hero with unique abilities, and works with his or her team to invade and destroy the enemy team’s base.
Over the course of a match, waves of computer-controlled creatures for each team advance automatically across the map along different pathways. Players fight alongside these creatures to advance the battlefront, destroy enemy towers, and eventually push into the enemy base. Other points of interest are guarded by neutral hostile creatures; capturing and controlling these points grants bonuses to your team. As your team kills computer-controlled creatures and other players, your hero will gain experience and levels to strengthen his or her special abilities. You’ll also earn gold which you can use to purchase upgrades and items to customize and improve your hero over the course of a match.
