The much-anticipated The Great Dark Beyond expansion has finally landed in Hearthstone, introducing an impressive array of 145 new collectible cards, along with the thrilling addition of space-faring Starships and the nomadic Draenei. Excited to dive into the details? Let's explore what this expansion brings to the table.
Who Are Draenei in The Great Dark Beyond in Hearthstone?
Draenei are a new minion type that embodies the essence of the cosmos. If you're familiar with the Warcraft lore, you'll recognize them as the 'Exiled Ones'—a group that fled their home planet to escape the menacing Burning Legion. Now, in Hearthstone, they're navigating The Great Dark Beyond, searching for a new sanctuary.
As Hearthstone's latest permanent minion type, the Draenei introduce a sense of hopeful nomadism. Their abilities often enhance the next Draenei card you play, fostering a sense of continuity and family. They rally around their leader, Velen, symbolizing their unity and resilience as they traverse the vast unknown together.
The main theme of The Great Dark Beyond is space exploration. You'll embark on a journey aboard your custom-built Starship, which you can construct using pieces you collect. Launch your Starship onto the board and watch it obliterate your opponents.
Throughout The Great Dark Beyond, you'll encounter Starship Pieces that you can play as regular Hearthstone minions. When these pieces are defeated, their stats and effects are absorbed by your Starship, transforming it into a formidable force ready to be deployed strategically.
Each class with Starship cards boasts a unique design for their vessel, including Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Druid, Hunter, Rogue, and Warlock. For a place where all classes can unite, head to The Exile’s Hope.
The Spellburst mechanic is making a triumphant return in this expansion, adding an extra layer of strategy to your gameplay. Additionally, a new Rewards Track is brimming with exciting loot, making every victory even more rewarding. Don't miss out—download Hearthstone from the Google Play Store today.
