Blizzard has announced that Hearthstone’s next expansion, Rise of Shadows, will be coming to all the things (PC, iOS, and Android, to be exact) on April 9th.
Rise of Shadows marks the start of Hearthstone’s first-ever year-long storyline, and focusses on a coalition of villains – including familiar faces such as King Togwaggle, Madame Lazul, Dr. Boom, and Hagatha the Witch – as they terrorise the land.
“After suffering defeat at the hands of the League of Explorers,” explains Blizzard in a flourish of scene-setting, “Arch-Thief Rafaam realised that his designs on Azeroth would require more roguery than he alone could muster. In the years since, he has dwelled in the shadows, recruiting the greatest antagonists Hearthstone has ever seen to join the League of E.V.I.L.”.
