Hearthstone Unveils Lost City of Un'Goro Expansion

Hearthstone is journeying back to the Un'Goro Crater in its latest expansion, The Lost City of Un'Goro, launching on July 8. While Hearthstone first explored Un'Goro in 2017, this new chapter presents a fresh narrative and refined gameplay.

What's New in Hearthstone's The Lost City of Un'Goro?

This update brings 145 new cards, a brand new keyword, and the return of classic mechanics. It also continues the story with a new expedition into the long-concealed city.

The Lost City of Un'Goro expansion follows Loh, a Tortollan explorer, as he leads a team into the mysterious city. Elise Starseeker acts as his navigator, while Umbra, a former Tortollan leader, serves as their guide. Unbeknownst to Loh, Umbra has her own hidden agenda, which is revealed throughout the set.

Now for the most exciting part! The Lost City of Un'Goro introduces a new Hearthstone keyword called Kindred. A card with Kindred gains a bonus effect if you played a card of the same minion type or spell school on your previous turn. Importantly, Kindred triggers based on the card played on the turn before, not during the same turn.

Quest cards are also making a comeback. These are 1-cost Legendary spells that begin in your opening hand. Each class receives one new Quest. After fulfilling the card's specified conditions, you unlock a powerful reward.

And There's More to Discover

Seven Story cards draw inspiration from the original Un'Goro set. These allow you to explore the past expedition to the Un'Goro Crater, featuring callbacks to previous events and characters.

The expansion also includes six new Map cards. When you play a Map, you Discover a card from three choices. If you play the selected card that same turn, you also receive one of the two remaining options. If you don't, you keep only the first selection.
