Press Release

Build the Ultimate Team in Hearthstone Mercenaries, launching on October 12

Diablo, The Lich King, and Sylvanas are all also obtainable in-game, without purchasing these bundles, from Mercenaries Packs or the crafting system.

Hearthstone Mercenaries is an all-new way to play Hearthstone, the smash-hit digital collectible card game, combining RPG and roguelike elements—no deck required! In this free-to-play game mode, players will recruit and collect legendary characters from across the Warcraft universe to take down procedurally generated Bounties. Players can mix-and-match over 50 unique Mercenaries (with more to come), each with three upgradeable abilities and potential synergies, to create countless squad combinations. Hearthstone Mercenaries will launch worldwide on October 12!

BUILD THE MIGHTIEST TEAM IN ALL OF AZEROTH!

  • Powerful Starter Squad: Upon completing the combat and village tutorials, all players will receive eight well-rounded starting Mercenary Cards.
  • Fast-paced Turn-based Combat: In head-to-head battles, players choose their moves simultaneously (actions with lower Speed ratings trigger first), until their opponent is defeated.
  • Progression: Mercenaries gain experience for defeating enemies and max out at Level 30.
  • Collect ‘em all: A variety of tasks and Bounties grant Mercenary Coins that can be spent to craft additional Rare, Epic, and Legendary Mercenary Cards. New Mercenaries can also be obtained from Mercenaries Packs, with a guaranteed Mercenary Card or Mercenary Portrait in each pack.
  • It Takes a Village: In the Village, the main hub for Mercenaries, players can manage their collection, collect task rewards, upgrade buildings, set off on Bounties, and so much more!

DIABLO COMES TO MERCENARIES

Diablo himself, the Lord of Terror, will be one of the over 50 Mercenaries at launch! He is available as part of one of three pre-purchase bundles, each including an iconic Blizzard character!

  • The Diablo Mercenaries Pre-Purchase Bundle includes a Diamond Legendary Diablo Mercenary Card and 50 Mercenaries Packs.
  • The Lich King Mercenaries Pre-Purchase Bundle includes a Diamond Legendary Lich King Mercenary Card and 50 Mercenaries Packs.
  • The Sylvanas Mercenaries Bundle includes a Golden Legendary Sylvanas Mercenary Card and 30 Mercenaries Packs.

Diablo, The Lich King, and Sylvanas are all also obtainable in-game, without purchasing these bundles, from Mercenaries Packs or the crafting system.
