"Hearthstone's Emerald Dream Expansion Unveiled"

Author:Kristen Update:May 18,2025

If you've been keeping up with the Pocket Gamer team's weekly Wrapps, you'll know I've been diving deep into Hearthstone lately, and now I'm set to face even more challenges with the launch of its latest update. The "Into the Emerald Dream" expansion, set to launch on March 25th, will introduce 145 new cards that are sure to shake up your strategies and combat tactics.

Alongside these new cards, you'll encounter fresh Keywords to master: Imbue for Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, and Shaman, and Dark Gifts for Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Rogue, Warlock, and Warrior. I'm still wrapping my head around how these keywords will influence the flow of battles, but it's clear they'll shift the meta, especially with the expanded Choose One mechanic. Every class will get a Choose One card, offering you the flexibility to pick between two modes in battle.

Adding to the excitement, a new Legendary minion, Ysera, Emerald Aspect, will stir the pot, ensuring that I'll have my work cut out for me when facing these new decks.

ytYou can already pre-purchase the new bundles until the launch date on March 25th. If you're looking for other gaming options, why not explore our list of the best card games on Android to keep your gaming appetite satisfied?
