The Traitor King himself aims to conquer the Nexus, as the latest addition to Heroes of the Storm.

Unleashing the spider webs just in time for October, Blizzard has revealed its latest champion due to hit the battlefield in Heroes of the Storm. Anub'Arak week is here, and this time around "The Traitor King" is seeking complete control of the Nexus!

Anub'arak originates from the Warcraft Universe. Fans of the franchise may remember him in Warcraft III: Frozen Throne as an undead servant of Arthas. Players of the more recent title, World of Warcraft, may remember encountering him as the final boss for both the 5-player Dungeon "Azjol-Nerub", and the "Trials of the Crusader" and "Trials of the Grand Crusader" Raids in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion.

Like previous heroes, Anub'arak will come with an Alternative Skin–presumably bought from the store–and a "Master Skin", which can be acquired for gold upon reaching hero level 10.

Alternative Skin: Cyb'arak Anub'arak

Master Skin: Master Anub'arak

For additional quotes and lore facts surrounding Anub'arak, be sure to check out his Hero Week page. While a full ability list is not yet available, check back later this week for the reveal of his full Hero Page detailing more about the Traitor King himself...and how to unleash him on your enemies throughout the Nexus. As always, keep it locked to ZAM for more Heroes of the Storm information, news and updates.
