Hearthstone Battlegrounds ignites Season 8 with a flurry of exciting updates! This season introduces thrilling new features, heroes, and cards, alongside significant improvements and adjustments that seasoned players will adore.
The Big Reveal: Trinkets and Marin the Manager
Following the Perils in Paradise update, Hearthstone Season 8 arrives with Trinkets – the new power-up mechanic. Players can acquire 56 Lesser Trinkets and 60 Greater Trinkets, with the possibility of obtaining duplicates. These valuable enhancements become available on turns 6 and 9, offering four choices each time, strategically influenced by your hero and current board composition (Elementals, Dragons, Murlocs, etc.).
The star of Season 8 is Marin the Manager, a brand-new hero who provides an extra Trinket a turn earlier, giving players a significant strategic advantage.
