Blizzard Entertainment has announced that the latest expansion for Hearthstone is now live. Titled Murder at Castle Nathria, it will drag players into the murky mystery behind the unfortunate demise of Sire Denathrius, slain at his own dinner party. The expansion introduces 135 new cards, including 10 Legendary suspects, new Card Type: Location, new Keyword: Infuse and much more!
Location cards are a feisty addition to your board, playable for an initial mana cost and then activated for free on your turn. Drop them onto the board and wisely set the effects in motion, keeping careful watch on the one-turn cooldown and diminishing durability to execute your strategy. Meanwhile, cards with Infuse will transform into mightier versions of themselves by drinking the intoxicating anima surrendered whenever a friendly minion dies.
Hold these cards in your hand until they’re fully infused—the transformation will metamorphose the artwork. Plus, no mystery would be complete without suspects! All ten classes will have their own Legendary suspect minion who was present at the party, giving players plenty of potential motives to unearth.
“Castle Nathria is one of the most beloved World of Warcraft raids from the past couple of years and we had a lot of fun bringing the style and energy of that experience to the whimsical world of Hearthstone,” said Mike Ybarra, president of Blizzard Entertainment. “We’re excited to see players throw on their deerstalker hats, check fingerprints on all new cards and legendary suspects, and immerse themselves in the murky mystery of this expansion.!”
