That being said, exactly how many characters does Blizzard plan on introducing to the game? In an interview with PC Gamer, Blizzard’s Dustin Browder was quoted as saying, “We’re adding them as frequently as we can, and we’re going to keep adding them as frequently as we can, even after launch. What you’re seeing now is not a burst of speed prior to launch. This is the pace that we’re hoping to continue developing at going forward. We’re gonna add game modes, we’re gonna add new heroes, we’re gonna add new battlegrounds.”
Browder also added that the amount of maps Blizzard will be adding to the game will not slow down or stop until they think they’ve had enough. The goal is to constantly update the game with new content in a bid to prevent it from becoming stale. We suppose we can appreciate that sentiment.
Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm has yet to receive a release date, but Blizzard has recently started to sell the Founder’s Pack which basically gives gamers the opportunity to get in on the beta by paying $40, which at the same time would nab them extra goodies on top of the beta entry.
