Heroes of The Storm Gets a New Character: Overwatch’s Lucio

Heroes of The Storm, the popular multiplayer game by Blizzard, is gaining yet another character to it’s roster: Lucio from Overwatch. For those of you not in the know, or just don’t play the game and have forgotten, Heroes of the storm is an online battle arena game developed and maintained by Blizzard on Microsoft Windows and Mac. The game features a host of different characters from a variety of Blizzard games, ranging from Diablo, Warcraft, The Lost Vikings, and as of late – Overwatch.

Overwatch’s wall-riding, music playing, relaxed healer will be the third character from Overwatch to be dropped into the game. With Tracer and Zarya having been ported over before their comrade. Here’s a peak at Lucio in action within the game:

As you can see, Lucio’s abilities in the game seem unchanged from his FPS self, though apparently his Reverse Amp can now slow down and damage his foes. Though when we will actually get Lucio in the game is as of yet unknown, Blizzard only tweeting out that he will be joining us “soon”.

Well I’m sure for Overwatch lovers, Lucio is a welcome addition to the Heroes of The Storm roster – and will hopefully be just as deadly.
