The next hero in Heroes of the Storm will be the Skeleton King Leoric from the Diablo universe. Blizzard has now released a video that does a bit of enlightening work on the creaky warrior.
What is dead may never die
Like so many characters, Leoric is also a tragic figure of the Diablo universe. Once a good king, he began to see enemies everywhere due to corruption. This even led him to have his own wife killed, along with a large part of his servants. But even when death befell him, it was not over for him: as the Skeleton King, he returned and brought back a large part of his former followers.
We have already talked a bit about the mighty warrior in the past, and nothing fundamental has changed about his abilities. Even in death, he can still influence the battlefield and thus secure victory for his team beyond death. A gameplay and story overview is provided in this short video from Blizzard.
On Twitter, it has also been announced that Leoric will not appear this week, but will show up soon on the battlefields of the Nexus. Even though “soon” is a flexible term at Blizzard, a release is expected next week.
