Hearthstone fans can get a look at the latest game patch notes before heading to the Blizzard Store to pick up a preorder copy of the next expansion, Whispers of the Old Gods.

Blizzard has released the first cinematic trailer for the next expansion to Hearthstone. Called ‘Whispers of the Old Gods’, the announcement was made at the ongoing North American Spring Tournament earlier today.

It seems that nothing is kept under wraps as long as it is supposed to be. Blizzard was set to reveal the next Hearthstone expansion during this weekend’s tournament action. However, a photo of an advertisement being painted on the side of a building in New York City has revealed the name: Whispers of the Old Gods.

Hearthstone Reddit users have ferreted out some information about a potential expansion to the game based on the removal of several cards from the official site, all of which have a connection in one way or another to the Old Gods. This information leads the speculation that the next expansion will be centered around the Old Gods.

Blizzard has uncovered the first details of changes coming to Hearthstone. Players will find that “Play Mode” has been renamed “Standard” and includes Friendly Challenges, Ranked and Casual Play. There is no affect on Arena, Solo or Adventure modes.

The ban hammer has swung on Hearthstone players with a ban wave issued for those who have been found to be using third party programs to provide an advantage in the game. According to the EU Hearthstone site, the Blizzard team will continue to monitor the situation and issue further ban waves as needed.

The third wing in the League of Explorers expansion to Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft has opened its doors as of today. The Ruined City pits players against scaly and slippery foes.

Sixteen Hearthstone: Champions of Warcraft will be competing in the World Championships for their share of a one million dollar prize pool and the "esteemed title of World Champion". The tournament will be preceded by several months’ worth of Ranked Play sessions, online and on-site tournaments to narrow the competitors to sixteen, each of whom will take home one-hundred thousand dollars.
