GRAB A MAP! Legend tells of a Lost City, hidden in Un’Goro Crater. Loh, the great Tortollan explorer, has chartered an expedition to uncover its secrets—but he doesn’t know that Umbra has secrets of her own. (Sound familiar? Hearthstone first visited the Un’Goro Crater in the expansion Journey to Un’Goro, back in April of 2017!) The Lost City of Un’Goro expansion will come with 145 brand-new cards, including new Story and Map cards, a new Kindred keyword, and a returning Quest keyword, arriving on 9 July AEST / UTC+8!
DETAILS OF THE EXPEDITION
- New Keyword: Kindred. Primal energy courses through Un’Goro Crater, infusing cards with bursts of power. By studying the area, we have found a way to predict these surges: cards with the Kindred keyword get a bonus effect if you played a card of the same minion type or spell school on your previous turn. Plan ahead to take advantage of their power.
- Returning Keyword: Quest. Quests are 1-cost spells that start in your opening hand. Complete the Quest’s requirements throughout the game to get a powerful reward. Each class gets a new Legendary Quest card in The Lost City of Un’Goro.
- New Story and Map Cards. Stories are how the Tortollan people pass on knowledge of the Crater to their next generation. Each story card tells a tale about the last time adventurers entered Un’Goro Crater. A good map is crucial for exploration. Map cards let you Discover a card and then, if you play your chosen card that turn, get another one of the options too. There are seven Stories and six Maps in The Lost City of Un’Goro.
- Plus Some Familiar Faces. Loh has gathered a team of adventurers to help him on his expedition, including a couple familiar faces: Elise Starseeker, the famous explorer, is the team’s navigator; and Umbra, the former leader of the Tortollans, is the team’s guide.
- How to Get the Set. We’re offering three pre-purchase bundles this expansion: our usual Pre-Purchase Bundle and Mega Bundle options, plus the Sequence Bundle (unlocked after getting the other two pre-purchase bundles). The Lost City of Un’Goro Mega Bundle includes 80 Lost City of Un’Goro Packs, 10 Golden Lost City of Un’Goro Packs, 1 Random Signature The Lost City of Un’Goro Legendary Card, 1 Random Golden Lost City of Un’Goro Legendary Card, 4 Tavern Tickets, and the Spiritsinger Umbra Card Back and Warlock Hero Skin. The Sequence Bundle offers the best value for players who want the most packs possible at launch.
