A new hero is coming to "Heroes of the Storm," and it is none other than Rexxar, Champion of the Horde.

Probably the most unique feature of Rexxar is none other than his loyal companion Misha, a bear who follows Rexxar on the battlefield. Rexxar can order Misha to attack enemies or simply keep her close. She will also possess her own health bar, meaning she can indeed be killed, although she can also respawn just like any other hero.

Rexxar will be bringing his own brand of devastating skills to the battlefield for players to marvel at. One of his heroic abilities will be Unleash the Boars, a skill that sees him sending out a hard-charging group of boars that will be targeting enemy heroes while dealing damage and also slowing their movements by 40 percent for five seconds, according to Battle Net.

The second of Rexxar's heroic abilities involves Misha, and it is known as Bestial Wrath. By using Bestial Wrath, Misha's attack will be raised by 150 percent for a duration of 12 seconds, allowing her to unleash a devastating flurry of her own.

Aside from adding Rexxar, the latest patch for "Heroes of the Storm" will also be introducing a new Silence Penalty.

The Silence Penalty will be imposed upon players inside the game who exhibit certain kinds of behavior.

For example, players who engage in forms of abusive chats such as insulting others in the game, using hate speech, or even making legitimate life threats will be hit with the penalty, according to Digital Trends.

Other actions that will likely lead to acquiring a Silent Penalty include AFK/non-participation, cheating or hacking, usage of inappropriate names, intentional feeding, and also sending spam messages to other players.

The first penalty will last for 24 hours; each subsequent one the players receive will double in length, making it more difficult for them to deal with.
