Blizzard MOBA Heroes of the Storm is officially getting a new character in the near future, welcoming the addition of World of Warcraft antagonist Xal’atath. The new Heroes of the Storm character is the first addition to the game’s roster in nearly six years.
Xal’atath is Heroes of the Storm’s Newest Character
Blizzard officially revealed Xal’atath as the newest character coming to Heroes of the Storm during BlizzCon 2026. The reveal trailer for the World of Warcraft antagonist featured an amusing video of Diablo antagonist Leoric in a janitor skin, cleaning up Heroes of the Storm‘s battlefield and reminiscing about defeating various Heroes. The teaser showcases Xal’atath appearing before Leoric, causing him to revert to his form as the Skeleton King before the two square off. Xal’atath is scheduled to be added to Heroes of the Storm on September 28, with fans able to pre-purchase the newest Hero following the conclusion of the BlizzCon presentation.
