A fancy WoW mount is only available if you play a bit of Hearthstone. We will tell you what you need to do and when.
In World of Warcraft you will soon be able to grab a new, cool mount – at least if you can warm up to playing a bit of Hearthstone. Blizzard is doing a new cross-promotion between its games and likely wants to help both franchises.
What kind of mount is it? The mount is the rat Sarge. Visually, this mount strongly resembles “Squeakers, the Trickster,” which is already available for purchase in the WoW shop. However, Sarge has some other details, such as a different saddle, a different harness, and various applications that strongly remind of Hearthstone – for instance, a card pack as a saddlebag on one side and the Hearthstone game board on the other.
What needs to be done? To unlock Sarge for your WoW account, you need to play and successfully complete the intro experience of the new “Mercenaries” mode in Hearthstone. This is essentially the tutorial for the new game mode. Generally, intro experiences in Hearthstone don’t take much time – these missions usually take around 30 to 40 minutes to complete.
When will this be possible? You can unlock the rat Sarge as soon as the Mercenaries game mode in Hearthstone is released. This will happen on October 12, 2021, probably in the early evening hours.
So, if you want to add a cute rat to your mount collection, you might want to install Hearthstone – after all, this mount looks really fancy.
What do you think about this cross-promotion and the mount? Will you unlock Sarge and roam through Azeroth with him? Or is this mount not worth a detour into Hearthstone for you?
