Heroes of the Storm is a mulitplayer online battle arena game that includes heroes from Blizzard’s franchise video games. Now it’s getting some fresh faces added to the mix like Lunara, Greymane, and Cho’Gall, and also receiving an Arena Mode. Another announcement at the show was the Diablo III new Patch 2.4.

And how could we leave out the awesome premiere for the World of Warcraft movie trailer from Legendary Pictures. If you haven’t seen it yet here it is:

For years Blizzcon has been growing and has now become one of the largest esports events around. This year’s StarCraft II World Championships was the last for the second expansion Heart of the Swarm, as Legacy of the Void will be on display next year. And Blizzard spared no expense in giving Heart of the Swarm a proper sendoff. Kim “sOs” Yoo Jin defeated Lee “Life” Seun Hyun in an epic finale, winning with a final score of 4-3 and taking home his second championship. Heroes of the Storm, WoW, and Hearthstone also had great esports events, but the Starcraft II contest was the showstopper this year.

And a special shout out to all who participated in the BlizzconBlizzcon Costume and talent contests. This year’s Blizzcon costume contest winner was Pappa Cosplay as “Medieval Marine.” First place in the talent contest went to the Pan Galactic Blizzard Jazz Orchestra.

That’s the rundown for what you need to know about this year’s Blizzcon. I’ve also compiled a list of auctions for items that were given away at Blizzcon 2015. All auctions were active as of this posting.
