Blizzard sent out an official press release today detailing the launch of their Whispers of the Old Gods expansion for Hearthstone. The expansion features 134 new cards with lots and lots of tentacles and a focus on the aptly named legendary Old Gods themselves, C’Thun, N’Zoth, Yogg-Saron, and Y’Shaarj.
"Whispers of the Old Gods adds an exciting new set of creepy, corrupted cards to Hearthstone,” said Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime. “We can’t wait to see how creative players are with the ancient evil of the Old Gods in their hands.”
It's worth noting that there are a few freebies thrown in for players who log back into the game. You will receive, C’Thun and two Beckoner of Evil cards when you open your first Whispers of the Old Gods card pack. You will also get three Whispers of the Old Gods card packs for free but the offer is only good for a limited time.
It was previously revealed that players will have the chance to earn 13 additional free card packs by completing various quests. Suffice it to say, there's a lot of freebies going around in Whispers of the Old Gods.
