Journey to Un'Goro will take adventurers to the heart of the
Un'Goro crater, a prehistoric region of Azeroth preserved in time. Rumor
has it that previous explorers left some unfinished business in
Un'Goro—daunting quest cards that, should you complete their
requirements, grant rewards of monstrous power. It's also said that the
crater's dinosaurs can adapt to any threat through a newly discovered
form of evolution, and can be quite territorial. Though you'll be tested
at every turn, worry not! Your safety is virtually guaranteed ... just
make sure not to touch anything!
Coming to Windows and Mac PCs; Windows, iOS, and Android™
tablets; and mobile phones, Journey to Un'Goro card packs will be
winnable in Hearthstone's Arena mode and purchasable with in-game
gold or real money at the same prices as Hearthstone's other card
packs. Starting tomorrow and up until the expansion is released, players
can pre-purchase Journey to Un'Goro card packs in a special
50-pack bundle, on any platform, for a one-time price of $49.99 (one
purchase per account). Eager explorers who pre-purchase this bundle will
receive a unique themed card back to help set the proper mood for the
upcoming expedition.
