Overwatch may be the darling of Blizzard’s eye right now, but a year ago it was all about the studio’s foray into MOBA gaming. That’s right: Today marks the first anniversary of Heroes of the Storm, so maybe take your eyes off of Tracer for a minute to… wait, she’s in this game too, isn’t she?
To celebrate Heroes of the Storm’s first birthday, Blizzard has turned on the XP faucet for all players. From now through June 14th, XP gains in the game will be increased by 50%, allowing for some extra advancement. The studio also is giving out a first anniversary portal to anyone who logs in during this period.
Since Heroes of the Storm’s launch in 2015, Blizzard has added four new battlegrounds and 15 additional heroes, the most recent of which is Chromie.
