Hearthstone Mercenaries, an all-new game mode to Blizzard’s card game!

Hearthstone Mercenaries has finally arrived to Hearthstone! The all-new, free to play game mode is a fresh new way for players to enjoy the digital card game, combining tactical RPG-style combat with engrossing and rewarding long-term progression. The focus is now on the game’s various iconic characters for you to collect, upgrade and kit out for the battles that await.

Hearthstone Mercenaries sees you assemble parties of six heroes from your roster and complete single-player Bounties, a randomly generated series of battles culminating in powerful Bounty Bosses. Every hero on the team will gain experience after each successful battle, increasing in power and gaining access to new abilities as they level up. Upon completing a full Bounty, players will earn a cache of treasure that includes Mercenary Coins, which they can use to craft additional heroes, or upgrade ones they already own.

Over 50 heroes are available at launch for you to get creative and find synergies. Face off against other players in the Fighting Pit for more experience, achievements, and other rewards.

“Mercenaries provides an experience that feels completely new, but embodies the fundamental spirit of Hearthstone. The team has opened up a whole new chapter for Hearthstone that captures its unique spirit, with a fresh mode full of strategic depth. I can’t wait to see the strategies our players will unleash on the world.
