Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft in Open Beta




Blizzard has announced that Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft can now be played by anyone in open beta. Game is first available in North America and Europe but in the next few day it should be available world wide. Just a quick warning, the game is very addictive, just like everything else from Blizzard.


Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft was announced last March and closed beta testing began later in the year. The fact that Blizzard has started open beta means the game is nearly finished and we could see it in the full version very soon. But then again with Blizzard you never know. Their policy is we will release the game when it is finished. Not that there is anything wrong with that, millions of fans around the world are not complaining.

Blizzard already has many great games like Starcraft, Warcraft, Diablo and it looks like Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft is another hit.

Official announcment.

Diablo III: Reaper of Souls in March



On March 25 the expansion of the best hack and slash game series is coming. Diablo III: Reaper of Souls is being released for Windows and Mac, the console version on some later date. Crusade against evil is getting bigger and better.

Diablo 3 was released two years ago and has seen many changes since. The most notable change is the cancellation of the Auction house, both real money and gold. Al tho the Auction house did bring more money to Blizzard, the fans never really accepted it and this is definitely a brave move that gamers applaud. One more thing that gamers didn't like was the fact that you have to be connected to the internet all the time in order to play the game. But being connected to the Battle.net also has a lot of benefits.

The expansion is bringing many new elements in to the game. In Diablo III: Reaper of Souls there is a completely new act and a new character to play with. These are some of the new features.

  • Act V: A dark and terrifying chapter sending players on a final confrontation with death itself
  • The Crusader: A new playable hero—a veritable war machine made human
  • Level Cap to 70: Formidable new spells and abilities that take players to new heights of power
  • Adventure Mode: A new game mode that gives players the freedom to go anywhere and slay anything
  • Bounties: Randomized objectives that reward players in new ways for exploring Sanctuary
  • Nephalem Rifts: Fully randomized dungeons offering endless replayability and heaps of loot
  • The Mystic: A powerful new artisan who provides heroes with loot-customization options

Even more to see on this YouTube clip:


Let's just hope that Blizzard is more prepare this time and that servers can hold all the gamers that will be eager to play Diablo III: Reaper of Souls on March 25.
