Few video game characters are as iconic as Sonic the Hedgehog. The speedy little blue blur has been around for over three decades, touching every corner of pop culture along the way, from games, to comics, to TV, to blockbuster movies. But we’re here specifically to celebrate the mainline Sonic game series and pick the best of them. Before we start, let’s quickly touch upon our criteria. We tried to rank these games based on a combination of historical significance, innovation, and how well these games stand the test of time. Some games, like Sonic Adventure 1 and the original Sonic the Hedgehog, for instance, are obviously super important to the Sonic series and set the foundation for both 2D and 3D Sonic games to follow, but we felt like they both didn’t quite hold up as well as their sequels when judged by a modern standard, which was why they just missed this list. The 10 games on this list are the ones we feel are the best examples of both classic and modern Sonic style. So w...

Blizzard Officially Ending Heroes of the Storm Content Development

-

Blizzard Entertainment is officially ending new content development for its MOBA Heroes of the Storm and will instead focus solely on keeping the game running smoothly with seasonal rolls, hero rotations, bug fixes, balance updates, and more.

Blizzard shared the news in a blog alongside reminding fans that Heroes of the Storm was first released seven years ago. Blizzard took the time to thank the Heroes community and promises to those who still wish to play that it is "committed to making sure that you can continue to enjoy your adventures through the Nexus."

Unfortunately, this means there won't be any new content and the game will enter a phase that is shared by games like StarCraft and StarCraft 2.

"Moving forward we will support Heroes in a manner similar to our other longstanding games, StarCraft and StarCraft II," Blizzard wrote. "In the future, we’ll continue seasonal rolls and hero rotations, and while the in-game shop will remain operational there are no plans for new for-purchase content to be added. Future patches will primarily focus on client sustainability and bug fixing, with balance updates coming as needed."

As a "token of [Blizzard's] appreciation" to its Heroes of the Storm fans, it will make up for this decision by gifting the "incredibly rare Epic Arcane Lizard mount" to all players with next week's patch.

In our 2018 re-review of Heroes of the Storm, we said that it "packs a ton of variety and excellent characters. Some of this MOBA's modes work better than others, but it's a safe bet that it'll deliver a fun match."

Also in 2018, Blizzard confirmed it was scaling down Heroes of the Storm development as it needed to "take some of our talented developers and bring their skills to other projects."

As Blizzard winds down support on Heroes of the Storm, it is also getting ready to launch Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV into the world. Overwatch 2 will arrive first on October 4 and Diablo IV will follow in 2023.
