What’s Playing on Battle.net: Early July 2022
Ten friends, rivals, and enemies—regardless of rapport, Sire Denathrius has extended an exclusive invitation to a lucky few souls from around the Shadowlands. The sprawling grounds of Castle Nathria beckon in Hearthstone’s latest expansion, inviting you to indulge in their marvelous sights (and, perhaps, some anima as well, if the rumors about Denathrius are to be believed). Ensure you RSVP for this illustrious dinner party-to-be in a timely manner; we’ve been told the banquet is to die for.
Every few weeks, we sample some of the limited-time highlights and “don’t miss” occasions to help you hit important dates and maximize each in-game moment.
