[dropcap style=”style1″]T[/dropcap]he Grand Tournament is the name of the next expansion for “Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft”, Blizzard revealed today at an event in San Francisco.

Vietgame.asia – Blizzard Entertainment announced a new expansion for its card game Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft this morning. The Grand Tournament expansion will introduce 132 new cards as well as an all-new keyword—Inspire.

Inspire is a trigger-style mechanic that will apply its effect on minions bearing the mechanic every time your Hero Power is used. Interactions with the Hero Power are the thematic content of the expansion!

As previously rumored, The Grand Tournament will be based on the Argent Tournament update from World of Warcraft. This provides Hearthstone with the context for an expansion based around mounts and jousting.

Of course, Blizzard promises that its interpretation of the Argent Tournament will be more fun and light-hearted than the World of Warcraft version.

Starting next week, anyone will be able to pre-purchase TGT card packs in a special 50-pack bundle on any platform for a one-time price of US$49.99 (one purchase per account). This purchase will also reward them with a new card back.

For more information, please visit The Grand Tournament. The iOS version of Hearthstone is available from the iTunes App Store, while the Android release can be found at Google Play and Amazon.
