Earlier last year Blizzard announced their new free-to-play card game called Hearthstone. The game has since come a long way and Blizzard released the game’s first expansion not too long ago where new cards and new mechanics were introduced. Now according to an earlier report, it was suggested that the next expansion will be a big one and will feature more than 100 new cards.
Well it turns out that is indeed in the cards (no pun intended). Speaking to the folks at Polygon, Hearthstone’s production director Jason Chayes revealed some additional details about the next expansion. For starters Chayes confirmed that the next expansion will come with more than 100 new cards.
Chayes also talked about the possibility of different game modes. “There is the idea to expand and have new modes where players can play in different ways. That’s not something we’re looking at super short term. That’s something that’s a little further out, because we want to keep pushing the modes that are there.”
Unfortunately Chayes could not provide more details about the next expansion and what kind of cards we could be seeing. However given that the Curse of Naxxramas was released a couple of months ago, we doubt the next expansion will be arriving anytime soon, but with BlizzCon 2014 kicking off next month, perhaps we could get a glimpse at what we might be able to expect then.
