Heroes of the Storm's summer season prize pot stands at $1.2 million

Heroes of the Storm’s summer season details have been announced, with the headline-maker being that damn huge figure: prize money will be $1.2 million (£850,000) across the various regionals and championships.

As detailed on the HotS blog, the road to the finals begins April 14 in the China Gold League, with regionals held around the world — and extra regionals added in both the US and Europe — taking in the likes of Leicester, UK; Austin, Texas; Taipei, China; and Burbank, California.

Each regional has a prize pot ranging from $18,500 (£13,000) to $170,000 (£120,000), while the grand final to be held during Dreamhack Summer, in Jönköping, Sweden from June 18-21, will be contested for a massive $500,000 (£350,000) pot.

More details will be posted over on the Heroes of the Storm page soon, so keep your eyes peeled if you’re looking for a bit of that lovely dollah-dollah.
