The highly condensed reveal schedule for Hearthstone Mercenaries began with two characters shown via the dedicated Discord server, and that's where it ended (they also staggered a couple of their releases to fit in between the reveals from Grumpi and The Fighting Pit Podcast).

In simpler terms - here are the final four Mercenaries set to join the game mode on September 27, along with the entire Maw and Disorder Mini-Set. Some famous individuals in this batch as well, if you enjoy keeping up with your Warcraft and Hearthstone lore. As we briefly mentioned when discussing the recent development update, this indeed now brings us to 14 new characters total. Thanks for following along!

With everything now revealed, 24.4 patch notes will be next on the line! Undoubtedly still with a few surprises in store.
