April is known this year not for weather changes, but for cool MMOs. Therefore, we present you here five online games that are particularly recommended in April. Have fun!
There is currently no sign of the famous crazy April weather, but there is no shortage of top MMOs in the fourth month of the year. Especially Blizzard is turning it up and showcasing new content for World of Warcraft, Diablo 3, and Heroes of the Storm.
But there is also a lot to play outside of Blizzard, console players can look forward to the “Age of Triumph” in Destiny and really make the most of the last update of the game.
Heroes of the Storm – Javazons and better loot
Heroes of the Storm is getting a massive update in April called “HotS 2.0” which reworks the reward mechanics and player progression. The inspiration is clearly Overwatch, because like in Blizzard’s hero shooter, you now receive a loot box for every level up, which can contain all sorts of things: skins, mounts, boosters, and even heroes!
If the contents of the boxes do not suit you, you can re-roll them for gold. Instead of spending real money directly, you need to buy gems. You get discounts on large gem packages and for certain achievements, you can also receive free gems from Blizzard.
Faster leveling and fun fluff
To ensure you always receive enough boxes, the necessary experience for a level-up will no longer increase from level 12 onwards. The level cap will also be removed. So you can level indefinitely! Your total level is the sum of your hero levels.
Additionally, with the new update, you can spray paint on the ground like in Overwatch, place banners at the sites of your victories, and even change announcer voices. So anyone who has always wanted Illidan or Murky to announce their kills should be happy. Also cool: In chat, you can purchase emoji packs for each hero and post laughing Illidans everywhere.
HotS – The Javazon Cassia
Heroes of the Storm 2.0 is already a hefty chunk, but there is also a new heroine. The newcomer comes this time from Diablo 2 and is the beloved Amazon from that time. In HotS, she is called Cassia and she uses the notorious “Javazon” build. This means she fights with throwing spears and shields.
This allows Cassia to deal significant damage and she is well protected by her shield. This makes Cassia a cool mix of tank and assassin who will certainly find her place in some teams.
Blizzard has not given us a release date except “early April” yet. Therefore, the update along with Cassia should be coming out soon.
On page two, we continue with a final triumph before the end!
