Hearthstone 27.0 patch notes – it’s time for the TITANS

Patch notes for the 27.0 Hearthstone version are out and come with everything we need to know about the upcoming TITANS expansion. While the new set will launch on August 1, all the necessary files will be available for download with tomorrow's patch so you can jump right into the gameplay the following Tuesday.

Let's go over what this 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes bring.

The X.0 patches are the ones that bring all the goods in preparation for the next expansion. They are mainly focused on constructed content, in this case, the TITANS expansion that will go live on August 1, and while the 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes don't bring any breaking news, it's worth doing a recap of what's to come.

The new TITANS expansion will bring some unique content, like new Keywords, mechanics, Signature Cards and much more. For you not to feel overwhelmed we've made guides for you to take one bite at a time.

Below you can find our guides and articles referring to the TITANS expansion and the new features coming to Hearthstone described in the 27.0 patch notes.

According to the 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes, two days after TITANS release, players will be able to celebrate the arrival of the expansion with a special event. The Uldar Grand Championship will grant the following prizes:

You will be able to get Event XP to unlock this loot via special event Quests or by simply playing the game. The Uldar Grand Championship will last until August 22, so you'll have time to get every reward.

The 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes bring some news to Battlegrounds as well. Starting on Tuesday 25 we will see two new Quests, as well as some other minor balance adjustments.

On top of these new Quests, the 27.0 Hearthstone Battlegrounds patch notes mention the following Rewards updates:

Also, some Heroes are seeing a change in the Armor they get as a balance measure:

The following heroes now have less Armor:

The following heroes now have more Armor:

The TITANS expansion will bring an Arena shake-up too. The 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes reveal that starting on August 1, Arena will see its classic set rotation. The following sets will be part of the Arena card pool:

This means that TITANS cards will show up on drafts even before the expansion launches, so if you want to try them out before everyone, go for an Arena run.

Talking about Arena Runs, the rotation mentioned in the 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes mean that this is the time when you can get some free packs even if you don't play Arena (or Duels). We have written a guide on that for you to take advantage of this legal trick that grants you free resources.

Patch notes mention that the current Hearthstone Duels season will end tomorrow, with the 27.0 update. This means that if you want to get the free ticket, you need to start a run before that.

On top of that, Diablo will no longer be an eligible Hero in the format. Moreover, Ashes of Outland will be added to the deckbuilding and card pool offerings and also TITASN will be part of the game mode. This last addition will happen only after the expansion launch on August 1.

As it was announced prior to these 27.0 Hearthstone patch notes, Twist Beta period will end on July 31. This was expected and it's a way for them to take on the feedback and plan for a full launch.
