- A much more expansive layout for news and game content in full-page view
- A revamped social pane so you can better see your friends and what they’re up to on each game tab
- Major accessibility improvements—we’ve added the ability to navigate most of the app with your keyboard, increased our screen reader support, and improved the color contrast
- A new, consolidated notifications hub for messages and download status
The main goal of the update is to ensure that users have a much smoother and easier time navigating through the interface, and Blizzard promises that they’ll continue to improve and iterate upon the launcher changes going forward.
