A little over a week ago, we brought Heroes of the Storm offline in order to prepare for the final phase of Technical Alpha testing. Today, we’re thrilled to announce that the Calm Before the Storm has passed, and we’ve got a brand new patch available for you. The Heroes Technical Alpha is now back online and you can check out our complete patch notes below.

All Heroes of the Storm Technical Alpha accounts have been reset with today’s patch.

Today’s patch marks our final planned Heroes of the Storm account wipe and monetary refund.

All purchases made using real-money prior to today’s account wipe have been reset and refunded to your Battle.net balance. From now on, any real-money and Gold purchases made in the Heroes Shop are permanent and will not need to be reacquired in the future.

All in-game Gold earned, as well as any purchases made using Gold, have been wiped clean, along with all experience points, Hero and Player Level progression, Daily Quests, and rewards.

Future updates may still require adjustments or wipes for player progression, but there are no further plans to do so, and this will be avoided whenever possible.

Please see the Shop section below for more details on purchases using Battle.net Balance.

Welcome Anub’arak and Azmodan, our latest additions to the Heroes roster!
