Hearthstone

Yesterday, Blizzard announced the "soft" launch of the collectible card game Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft on iPad: the project became available in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. And already today it is in the top 2 downloads in Canada and Australia.

The game also performs well at the box office: in the Canadian grossing of games, it is already in 19th place.

Recall that the game is a simplified Magic: The Gathering. This is Blizzard's triple debut — its first card game, its first F2P project, and its first release for mobile devices. 

The mobile version repeats exactly all the features of the "desktop editions", so that players with "tablets" can fight with fighters sitting in front of monitors.

The game will soon be available in other countries, as well as expand the list of supported platforms to iPhone and Android devices. For those who can't wait, we suggest using the help of TeamViewer (or just get yourself a Canadian iTunes account).

The release of Hearthstone on PC on March 12, 2014 was preceded by a long beta testing phase (the game has been tested since August 2013). To date, the number of gaming accounts has exceeded 10 million.  According to analysts, Hearthstone is able to raise more than $200 million in cash this year.
