Thematically, Rastakhan’s Rumble will be based around what’s said to be a rare event where Azeroth’s troll tribes gather to honor and compete for their loa’s blessings. Here’s the leaked description of the Hearthstone event and expansion:
As is said, the expansion will likely include a variety of cards featuring the various troll tribes, their loa gods, and the myriad creatures that share the region around the Zandalari capital of Dazar’Alor. No cards have leaked as of yet, unfortunately, but players can certainly expect Blizzard to share some during its BlizzCon 2018 Hearthstone panel. The Hearthstone “What’s Next” panel airs Friday afternoon at 2:30 pm PT.
There has since been a second leak regarding the Hearthstone Rastakhan Rumble expansion, a Korean advertisement for the upcoming expansion’s pre-order. As expected, the pre-order will feature the standard 50 card packs and an exclusive card back. Much like the pre-order for The Boomsday Project expansion, the pre-order will also feature an exclusive hero class portrait. It’s not clear what class King Rastakhan will represent, but given the blue glow in his portrait Shaman would be a safe bet.
Expect a bevy of new information, including a brand new Blizzard cinematic trailer, for the Rastakhan Rumble expansion in just a short while. The BlizzCon 2018 opening ceremony starts in less than an hour, at 11:00 am PT. Hearthstone’s expansion is likely to be just one of several major announcements made by Blizzard today and then showcased during the event over the weekend.
Hearthstone is available now on PC and mobile devices.
