Blizzard Entertainment revealed a plethora of new content that will be playable on the Gamescom show-floor in Cologne, Germany. For those who can't travel to Germany for the massive games show, the popular game developer and publisher released a video showcasing the new content.

Blizzard Entertainment's player-friendly MOBA, Heroes of the Storm, will finally include the highly-requested Warcraft Hero, Kel'Thuzad. The Lord of Naxxramas will be detailed more at the Blizzard Reveal Ceremony in a few days.

Additionally, an animated trailer featuring Kel'Thuzad as well as three new skins for existing characters was shown within their Gamescom preview video below.
