As announced recently at PAX East, starting March 20th, the new Hearthstone adventure “Blackrock Mountain” will be available for pre-order. Those who decide to make such a purchase will get access to all wings early, as well as an exclusive card back.
However, it has now been revealed that the pre-order cannot be made with Gold. This means that the card back will only be exclusively available to players who reach for real money instead of virtual currency for the latest addon. Many players have been saving up numerous Gold coins since the “Goblins vs. Gnomes” expansion to unlock the wings for free with Gold. This lightly kicks those loyal frequent players in the shin, as who would want to spend €22 just for a card back when the actual content can already be paid for with in-game currency?
All further news and information about Blizzard’s card game can be found on our Hearthstone topic page.
