Hearthstone has officially unveiled Across the Timeways, a brand-new expansion that transports players across dimensions, eras, and legendary heroes in a dazzling celebration of the gameâs rich history and boundless lore. Set to launch in early 2025, this expansion brings a fresh wave of innovation, nostalgia, and high-stakes time-bending gameplay.
đź Key Features of Across the Timeways:
đ°ïž Legendary Heroes from Alternate Timelines
Players can now wield not just one, but multiple legendary heroesâeach representing a different version of iconic figures from across the Hearthstone timeline. These include:
Yogg-Saron, the Twisted Mind (Time-Shifted) â A fractured version of the Old God, split across multiple timelines and capable of casting spells from different eras.
Jaina Proudmoore, the Arcane Historian â Drawing power from all eras of magic, she reshapes the battlefield with spells from past, present, and future.
Thrall, the Time-Scarred Shaman â Channels the spirits of past and future shamanic leaders to control elemental chaos.
Each hero features a unique Chrono-Ability, allowing them to manipulate time in gameplayâreplaying actions, rewinding damage, or summoning past versions of their own minions.
âł Chrono Mechanics: Rewind, Rebuild, Reclaim
Across the Timeways introduces a revolutionary mechanic: Chrono-Resonance. At random intervals during a match, players can activate a "time echo" to:
Reverse a damaging spell or minion death.
Re-summon a previously destroyed hero or legendary minion.
Swap the stats of two minions for one turn.
These abilities are tied to your deckâs time theme and evolve as you progress through the expansionâs story mode.
đź New Game Mode: Battle Through Time
A fully immersive story-driven campaign where players choose a timeline to defendâwhether itâs the Darkmoon Faire of 2010, the War of the Ancients, or the Shattered Realms of 2040.
Each timeline offers:
Unique card back designs.
Story-driven quests with branching choices.
Alternate versions of classic cards (e.g., "Mana Wyrm" from the original Hearthstone vs. "Chrono Wyrm" from the future).
Complete the campaign to unlock a Legendary Time-Traveling Heroic Mount: Chrono-Drake, which glides across the battlefield with shimmering temporal wings.
đ New Card Types & Mechanics
Temporal Enchantments â Cards that change effect based on the turn number.
Echo Minions â Minions that appear as "echoes" from past or future turns, with altered stats.
Time Rifts â Special board zones that trigger when two or more cards with opposing time tags are played.
đš Visual & Audio Evolution
All new cards feature animated time-warp effects and retro-futuristic art styles.
A new âEcho Symphonyâ soundtrack, composed by the original Hearthstone composer, combines classic themes with evolving electronic and orchestral layers.
đŁ What the Developers Say:
âAcross the Timeways isnât just an expansionâitâs a love letter to every player whoâs ever cast a spell, summoned a dragon, or stared into the void of a wild game. Weâre not just adding new cardsâweâre redefining what Hearthstone can be across time, space, and memory.â
â Ricardo Vargas, Creative Director, Hearthstone
