The game was originally announced at the Penny Arcade Expo last year, and opened the doors to a closed beta back in August. Since then, it's been embraced by streamers and esports circuits alike, starting with the Blizzcon invitational, the SeatStory Cup, and with both Major League Gaming and Electronics Sports League hosting tournaments.
Android and iPhone releases are expected some time in Q2.
