The developers from Blizzard Entertainment have shared the starting guide to help players prepare for the all-new free-to-play RPG mode Mercenaries coming to Hearthstone on October 12. Start up a new Bounty after the introductory missions and you will also receive the adorable new Sarge mount for World of Warcraft!
Hearthstone Mercenaries is the new game mode that allows you to collect iconic Mercenaries, assembling Parties to take down procedurally-generated Bounties. It is an entirely new way to play Hearthstone, combining RPG and roguelike elements with some of your favorite Hearthstone characters.
To bring players up to speed, Blizzard also shared a series of articles dedicated to the new mode:
- Prepare for Mercenaries – General Overview
- Mercenaries Gameplay Spotlight
- Mercenaries Village & Collection Spotlight
The Lord of Terror is coming to help celebrate the launch of Mercenaries! Diablo is available as part of one of three pre-purchase bundles, each including an iconic Blizzard character! The Diablo Mercenaries Pre-Purchase Bundle includes a Diamond Legendary Diablo Mercenary Card and 50 Mercenaries Packs; the Lich King Mercenaries Pre-Purchase Bundle includes a Diamond Legendary Lich King Mercenary Card and 50 Mercenaries Packs; and the Sylvanas Mercenaries Bundle includes a Golden Legendary Sylvanas Mercenary Card and 30 Mercenaries Packs.
The Diablo, Lich King, and Sylvanas Mercenaries are all also obtainable in-game, without purchasing these bundles, from Mercenaries Packs or the crafting system.
