The bundles provide access to 20 heroes each for one of four roles: Assassins, Support/Specialist, Tanks/Bruisers, and Flex. Each bundles contains a largely variety of heroes, and while most heroes are available across different bundles, all 60+ are available.
This launch comes as part of Blizzard's Heroes of the Storm 2.0 update, which aims to drastically change how the game operates by improving its progression system and including new rewards, battlegrounds, and even more heroes. Check out the video in the Tweet below to learn more about the update.

This latest move is undoubtedly part of Blizzard's goal to increase HotS's availability in time for their big changes. The title is already free-to-play, and while heroes must be purchased with in-game currency before they can be accessed, a number are rotated in each week for players to try out for free.
These mega bundles will only be available following the launch of HotS 2.0 from April 25 to May 22. To provide added incentive, players logging on during that time will receive one automatically for free.
