IMPORTANT! - Hero Release Schedule Change

As we near the third anniversary of Heroes of Newerth in May, I wanted to address everyone in the community about several important changes taking place at S2. As a company, we are changing the way we think about HoN and charting a new course regarding how we develop the game we all know and love.

You have probably noticed that there was no Hero Teaser released this past Friday. This was due to a shift in our release schedule corresponding with the huge patch we're releasing in the next few weeks. Not only will you see our newest Hero in that patch, but also some very exciting new content that has been in the works for a very long time. 

While we've hinted in the past that a big balance patch is set for release at the conclusion of the HoN Tour Grand Finals, we realize the effect that wait has had on the community. We know that everyone in the HoN community is hungry to see what's next and it brings us a great sense of pride to see how vocal everyone has been leading up to this point.

With this big patch, we've focused on delivering what hardcore HoN players want like never before with impactful, exciting changes that fuel the way everyone plays HoN. We are very excited to share just how massive an effect this patch will have on the future development of HoN. We are going to be setting a new precedent for how we deliver game-changing content to HoN and streamlining our development process to further feed your hunger in the future.

In the past we've discussed how the HoN community fuels our development and that holds true now more than ever. We welcome and encourage your suggestions and feedback everyday. This is especially true in threads such as those started by our product manager, Buro, about Improving HoN. We're listening to these suggestions, but more importantly we want to show you the impact those suggestions have on us as developers and the HoN community at large.

For a short glimpse of what's coming to HoN, we've prepared the teaser trailer below. We're all systems go over here at S2 Games and ready to fuel your competitive spirits further with HoN 3.1 arriving May 3rd.
