Blizzard announced that blood elf Prince Kael’thas was coming to Heroes of the Storm with some fanfare last week, and they’re holding a Reddit Q&A session this week just for him. So why no love for Johanna the Crusader, guys?
Diablo 3’s tank-like exterminator of evil is the next hero character on their way to the cross-IP MOBA, as revealed by a video showing in-development skins and mounts set to come to the game this year.
The studio’s chosen the female version of the class, and as Diablo fans would expect she’s packing some pretty badass armour and a massive, vicious flail. You’d imagine Johanna will take the role of a front-line tank/damage-dealer, though there’s next to no information on her thus far.
Also shown off in the video are several new skins on their way to the MOBA, including a very fetching ‘Bikini Stitches’, Centurion Johanna, tiger mounts and more. Here’s the full list of cosmetic options shown off in the video:
