‘Later this month’
The time has finally come for Hearthstone to hit Japan. Although the game wasn’t previously that popular in the region (partially due to the fact that they had to play an international version), Blizzard will bring the game over “later this month” with a localized edition of the game.
Speaking of Hearthstone, the new Grand Tournament expansion has pulled me back in again. While I’ve been casually dabbling in the game since launch, the new cards are a great addition to the game, and I really dig the theme and the new mechanics like “inspire,” which trigger bonuses after using your hero power. It’s a new mechanic that you have to deal with sooner than later, and adds quite a bit of depth.
