The card battling Hearthstone is now officially launched as it leaves behind the beta chapters of its life. The free-to-play game from Blizzard will be getting far less drastic balance updates from now on.
Also to celebrate the occasion, Blizzard is offering an epic Hearthsteed mount for anyone trying Hearthstone and for winning three games. This mount is then mailed to World of Warcraft.
It’s a dastardly fiendish cross-promotion! Any match won in Play or Arena mode count toward the three needed for your new flying horse with ethereal wings.
Why not play a hand of Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft now?
Blizzard are also hosting a number of activities to celebrate the launch this Friday:
