Volskaya Foundry coming to Heroes of the Storm

Pack your warmest winter combat armor, because we're excited to share with you some of the exciting content coming in the next major update for Heroes of the Storm!

Welcome to Volskaya
First off, we're taking players into the Nexus to our newest Battleground—icy Volskaya Foundry. This snowy, sprawling three-lane control Battleground features Overwatch-style capture points, moving conveyor belts, and one of the coolest objective rewards yet—a giant mech to pilot with your team!

New Heroes Enter the Nexus
We're also excited to share that two new Overwatch heroes will soon be joining the fight:

• Ana — A burst Healer who uses precise skillshots to heal allies and can deny enemy healing.
• Junkrat - It's always a perfect day for some mayhem with this ranged Assassin. Coming soon!

New Brawl & Event Quest

• This massive update also includes a fun new event, Pachimari Mania! Collect the Golden Pachimari and earn the new Pachimari portrait, emoji, banner, and spray.
• Try out the fast paced high-octane mechanized Brawl, Bash ‘Em Smash ‘Em Robots!

New Skins and Mounts
• Check out new Skins including Shrike Ana and Commandant Varian.
• Ride into battle in style with the Celestial Raptor and the never before seen Invisible Horse mounts
