Welcome everyone to the Hearthstone Spotlight
Today is all about the future and what's next for our favorite game
We're going to reveal our next expansion and talk about our goals for 2026
We kicked off last year in space with our first ever journey outside of Warcraft with the Heroes of Starcraft miniset
Then we battled for the World Tree in Into the Emerald Dream
We even had our first ever expansion sequel with the Lost City of Un'Goro
And just recently, we helped Chromie gather heroes from alternate timelines to take down Murazon in Across the Timeways
But the story continues. I am terror I am vengeance And my attack on this world has already begun
Crush them, Shogun. Break them, Ragnaros
Conquer them, Azara
Azeroth, your time has come For now begins the rain
Hey everyone The story that began in Across the Timeways isn finished just yet On the brink of defeat Mirazond shattered the hourglass of time and ripped open a portal to another timeline
That timeline is the only one in which Deathwing succeeded in the Cataclysm
This is the Deathwing that won, and now he's here. In order to defeat this world-ending threat, Chromie and the Heroes of Time will join forces with the Dragonflights
and venture across Azeroth to defeat Deathwing's lieutenants before taking the fight to the Destroyer himself
But these are no ordinary lieutenants, because in this set, we're bringing back Colossals
We loved them when they first debuted in Voyage to the Sunken City, and this was the perfect time to revisit the mechanic with fresh eyes
In Cataclysm, each class gets their own colossal, but six of them are Deathwing's lieutenants
and that means those classes get the new keyword, herald. Or, if devastation isn't your thing, you can ally with the dragonflights against Deathwing
and gain access to the shatter keyword. We'll tell you more about both of these keywords in just a minute
You'll also have the aid of the heroes of time through a series of spells called the
Triumphs and Last Stands. Each class will get either a triumph or a last stand that shows their fabled hero of time fighting to save Azeroth In a battle as big as this one some heroes will triumph and others will mount a last stand worthy of a hero of time
Cataclysm is coming to Hearthstone next month, but the fight against Deathwing has already started
Azeroth, your time has come. I'll be honest, things are not looking good
We're fighting the most powerful Deathwing across all timelines, so we're going to need some backup
In a community event that starts today, we'll all be joining forces to recruit the Dragonflights
Together, we'll hold off Deathwing's lieutenants while Chromie travels across time and gathers powerful cards from the past
And when Chromie returns on March 10th, one week before the Cataclysm expansion
we are giving you access to all cards from the expansions into the Emerald Dream and the Lost City of Unguro
Every single card, even the goldens. These trial cards stick around for a full expansion cycle
Between this, the core set, and our other events, everyone will have access to two thirds of all standard cards for free
We want this to be an awesome moment for everyone, including the players that already have everything
So those of you with a high collection level in End of the Emerald Dream will receive a free signature Yessir
