Kaelen runswith the pack

Kaelen, Predecessor's first wolf hero, joins the game with Patch 1.18 Frostbite on November 3. A hero built around the strength of the pack deserved a launch that gives something back to the real thing, so we're excited to announce our partnership with the Wolf Conservation Center.

As part of Kaelen's launch, we're making a donation to the Center, giving 10% of sales of Kaelen's Quantum skin and bundles to the Center, and sharing a little about the important work they do. If you'd like to help too, you can donate to their Treat the Pack fundraiser below.
