Heroes Will Fall on September 7, 2016!

“Hearts frozen, weapons shattered, dread rising, yet valor still unbroken. These are our times, this is our war, turmoil is our lot. This is Herofall.”

On September 7, 2016 we will witness the tragic conflict that is Herofall first hand. Our fifth card set is coming to HEX with over 275 new cards, new champions and exciting new keywords. For the first time in HEX, there will also be a complete set of new gems.

We can’t wait for you to get your hands on the new cards and to play with the many new strategies and tactics opened up by the many additions to our game. The appetite you showed over these last few weeks for spoilers, new lore and gameplay mechanics will finally be sated.

We are certain that you will enjoy this expansion immensely!

In these coming days before the launch of our new card set, we will have the final bits of information for you, such as our launch celebration and patch notes.

With the launch of Herofall, we will be replacing the Orc Mage Sleeve as the reward for completing three Evolving Sealed Gauntlets.

If you haven’t already grabbed your copy today, make sure you do so by September 7th! When Herofall releases, we will introduce a brand-new sleeve earned by playing in three Evolving Sealed Gauntlets. Check it out:

You will still be able to get the Orc Mage Sleeve by purchasing the Primal Dawn Steam DLC, as the sleeve will remain unchanged there.

Game on!

We would also like to make you aware that the first week of Ladder Season 2 is going to be played before the launch of Herofall. To accommodate this rather short transition time, we will grant you a booster pack of Herofall in addition to the Primal Dawn booster packs you would receive at the appropriate reward tiers. These booster packs will be granted retroactively after the release of Herofall.

Update:

We will be back-granting rewards for all prizes earned through ladder ranks before the launch of Herofall, not just booster packs. Players will still be getting the Season 1 AA promo cards until we launch Herofall. Once Herofall releases, those players will be back-granted the applicable Season 2 AA based on what they have earned. Similarly, players will still be getting the “Season 1 sleeve” from the Season 2 ladder until we patch out Herofall. Once Herofall releases, those sleeves will switch over to the new Season 2 images (since you can’t own more than one copy of a sleeve).

There’s always a reason to climb the ladder!
