Developer Blizzard Entertainment has announced the arrival of Season 2 in Hearthstone Battlegrounds, going live on August 30. Exciting new features are on their way to the game, including the all-new Battlegrounds Track, Battlegrounds Season Pass, Battlegrounds Missions, Legendary cosmetics, hero and minion updates and much more.
Battlegrounds will now have its own progression track that grants Battlegrounds-specific rewards each season. Like the current Hearthstone-wide Rewards Track, there will be both free and premium unlockable rewards along the Battlegrounds Track, and progress towards those rewards is earned by playing. Those Battlegrounds-specific rewards include new Battlegrounds Emotes, Hero Skins, Strikes, and more!
Battlegrounds will remain a free-to-play mode, with more free rewards than ever before. In addition to the free rewards on the Battlegrounds Track, the base emotes, advanced stats, and hero early access that were previously purchased through Battlegrounds Perks will now be available to all Battlegrounds players.
