Goblins vs Gnomes is the first expansion for the game and will introduce over 120 new goblin- and gnome-infused cards for players to add to their collections.

Goblins vs Gnomes immerses Hearthstone players in an epic rivalry between goblin engineers and their gnomish counterparts. Though wildly brilliant, these pint-size tinkerers don't always have the upper hand on the mechanical contraptions they create, and the results can be wonderfully unpredictable. The new cards coming in the expansion are filled with wild and wacky inventions as well as some faces that will be familiar to World of Warcraft and Hearthstone players.

Since the announcement of Goblins vs Gnomes at BlizzCon 2014, we’ve been tinkering away in preparation to bring one of Warcraft’s greatest rivalries to Hearthstone. Today, we’re excited to announce that Hearthstone’s very first expansion will be exploding onto game boards starting December 8 (December 9 in Europe)!

Goblins vs Gnomes cards can be purchased as packs, crafted with dust, or earned in the game's Arena mode. Goblins vs Gnomes card packs will work just like the classic card packs you already know, but they’ll have an explosive new wrapper, and contain all new cards! 

Be ready to build up your decks, card-slingers—and get ready for glorious mayhem and delightful surprises!
