The title is played by millions of gamers each day, and that's due to the developer's continued post-launch support.
Today, Blizzard discussed the upcoming "Rise of the Mech" event. The team said that "Blastmaster Boom" is headed back to the drawing board to upgrade his arsenal and perfect some of his favorite pet projects. Rise of the Mech starts on June 3, and includes the following main content.
- New Legendary Mech named "SN1P-SN4P."
