Blizzard has just rolled out a new set of free characters in its weekly rotation for Heroes of the Storm, not to mention new discounts on Tassadar and a few skins for other popular fighters like Uther or Zeratul.

Heroes of the Storm entered closed beta last week, and since then, many new players have been allowed or have purchased access to the test phase for the free-to-play experience. In order to give players a chance to experience as many characters as possible, Blizzard hasn't just continued the weekly free hero rotation but it's also introduced weekly discounts on characters and skins.

New free heroes are available this week

This week, starting today, January 27, until February 2, quite a few new heroes are available to most players for free. These include Arthas, ETC, Li Li, or Uther from the Warcraft universe, Kerrigan and Tychus from the Starcraft one, and Nazeebo, the witch doctor from Diablo 3.

You can play most of the heroes for free but some of them are locked until you reach levels 13 and 15 on your player profile. Don't forget that you can take the characters to level 5 and unlock in-game gold that you can spend on buying your favorite ones and securing access to them permanently.

A few discounts are also available

A few new discounts are also available until February 2 on the in-game store, according to the official website, starting with the hero Tassadar, that has a big price cut, but also including the High Templar skin for Zeratul and the Medic skin for Uther.

All the deals are available inside the multiplayer game, so you might want to take advantage of them sooner rather than later. Check out a few screenshots with the new free heroes in the gallery below.
