The latest HearthStone expansion is Kobolds & Catacombs. Ben Brode served as dungeon master to announce the expansion, which draws from classic fantasy for a D&D-style atmosphere filled with legendary loot to collect and party members to recruit.

The recruit ability is key to the new expansion, allowing you to pull a minion from your deck and instantly play them, as with the Gather Your Party card below.

Legendary weapons are the other key to Kobold’s and catacombs. Every single class will have one, including those which have never had a weapon before. Dragon Soul is one example.

In addition to the new cards, there’s also a new single-player mode called Dungeon Run, which will have you start with a ten card deck, and you’ll expand it is you face an array of random boss enemies. Brode describes this as a totally replayable “Hearthstone roguelike” that will be completely free.

More cards will be revealed later at the show, but here’s what else we’ve seen so far.
