Additionally, we’re continuing to expand our Creator Program and using that program to support those creators who are growing the community. We are also exploring options for new community-building events that are more digital-focused, like our recent Community Day activation. We’re very excited to be returning to BlizzCon this year, as the ultimate in-person celebration of Blizzard games and community! Hearthstone is cooking up some particularly fun stuff for BlizzCon that you won’t want to miss. We know that for some players Fireside Gatherings were more about engaging with Hearthstone community than they were about opening packs.

Players who just want to open all their Pre-Purchase packs right away will be able to do so in a fraction of the time! And players who like opening each pack individually and savoring their loot can still do that, too. Mass Pack Opening has been a much-requested feature for a while now, and we’re happy we’ll be able to deliver it to our players before the next expansion. All the cards will be in your Collection, like normal, for browsing and deckbuilding once your packs are all open.

Voila! The interface will then show you some highlights from your packs, which you can reveal one by one or all at the same time, and then it will give you a full summary of all the cards opened in that pack stack. Once you’ve gathered all the packs you want, move over to the pack-opening area and release your stack of packs. It will charge up with energy and start adding packs to your opening.

To access Mass Pack Opening, grab a pack from your stack and hold the pack over the stack.

If you have 5 or more of the same type of pack, you’ll be able to open up to 40 of them at once! That means it’ll take just a few clicks to crack open all the packs you get from pre-purchase or any other large bundles. We’re happy to share we’ll be adding a new feature that will let everyone get into the action faster and with less friction than ever before: Mass Pack Opening! Players primarily wanted to get their pack opening done early so they could jump right in and start playing the new expansion as soon as it unlocked. This means you will no longer be able to create public or private Fireside Gatherings, and there are no Fireside Gathering Pre-Release Weekend plans for future expansions.įor many years, we’ve noticed that the most common Fireside Gathering functionality was creating private events to open packs early during Pre-Release Weekend. As of today, the public Fireside Gatherings website has been shut down. Some of these changes have already gone into effect others are scheduled over the next few patches.

We’re making some changes to the current expansion Pre-Release Weekend and Fireside Gatherings system ahead of our next expansion announcement, reveal period, and launch.įirst, we’ve made the difficult decision to discontinue the Fireside Gatherings program as we re-align our focus towards features and programs that can serve more of our players throughout the world.Īs part of this shift, the Fireside Gatherings website, servers, and in-game buttons will be shut down and removed before the next expansion.
