Critic Reviews
IGN
By Ian NowakowskiIt's hard to find as fun and fresh a package as this one in the free-to-play MOBA genre. I think it'll pay to stick around, because I'm never quite sure what they'll cook up next.

By cameron_thomasThere has never been a better time to check out Heroes of the Storm or come back to it. I strongly suggest you give it a look!
PCMag
By Jordan MinorHeroes of the Storm is Blizzard's attempt to bring multiplayer online battle arenas to the masses, and it succeeds, which isn't necessarily a good thing.
CGMagazine
By Eric WatsonI can't recommend Heroes of the Storm's friendly approach enough.

By Michael BittonIf you're both a fan of the MOBA genre and Blizzard's various properties, there's no reason you shouldn't check Heroes of the Storm out. It may seem like Blizzard's just got another "me too" on its hands at first glance, but there's enough to set this MOBA apart from the rest and it all combines together to make for a distinct and thoroughly fun experience that no fan of the genre should miss.
