A lot goes into getting a Hero ready to step out onto the many Battlegrounds of the Nexus. From concept, to design, art, animation, effects, audio, and more, there are almost limitless possibilities of how a Hero can be brought to life.

In this episode of Building the Nexus below, we check in with Community Manager Josh “Rokcet” RZ and Grey Griffin, the English voice of Nova in Heroes of the Storm!



But crafting a nuanced performance requires the combined talent of many people, including the casting and voice-over directors, writers, sound engineers, producers, sound designers, localization team, regional voice actors, and more. Here is a brief look into a recent studio recording session!



Grey Griffin listening to voice-over recordings of other Heroes her character is reading lines with.

The Sound Engineer keeping track of various takes. Community Manager Kimberly "Vaeflare" LeCrone preparing interview questions.


Casting and Voice-Over DIrector Andrea Toyias and Writer Justin Dye jotting down notes on each individual take.


Grey sharing a laugh with the team during a recent recording session.

What aspect of the development of Heroes of the Storm are you interested in learning more about? Let us know in the comments below, and perhaps we’ll cover it in a future episode of Building the Nexus or a behind-the-scenes blog!
