The Year of the Dragon is coming to an end, so pay tribute to the Year of the Phoenix, in which Hearthstone will be reborn and come back even more powerful!
Its ashes will only serve as a name for the first expansion of 2020: Ashes of Outland.
For the first time in the history of the game, a new class is coming soon: the Demon Hunter.
Do you feel lost with all of this news? Here's a summary of all the new features you need to know to master absolutely everything.
The first expansion of 2020: Ashes of Outland
The upcoming expansions
If we know the name of the first one, and most of its specifics, Blizzard has only unveiled the roadmap of what will happen in the calendar year 2020.
The Hall of Fame
The Hall of Fame will be well filled after the next arrival since no less than 5 Neutral cards and 6 Priest cards are rotating out.
Ladder, anti-duplicate system and other news
- Ladder overhaul effective in a few weeks: new ranks from Iron to Legend
- Anti-doubling system reserved for legendary cards extended to rare and epic cards
- Improved end-of-season rewards
- Exclusive card back for each season to be won immediately
Standard Rotation
The rotation of three expansions (Witchwood, Boomsday Project, Rastakhan's Rumble) will be effective as of April 7.
That's already a lot to take in, and Blizzard adds that we should see more new features coming in the Year of the Phoenix, including a new Battlegrounds game mode. New game modes? Single-player modes with a new design? It's still too early to know, but this year promises to be exceptional in Hearthstone!
