Hearthstone player count has grown by 30 million in the last 18 months

November 11, 2018 Hearthstone player count is now over 100 million.

Hearthstone player count continues to grow years after its release, and the latest number is an especially notable milestone: 100 million players. Blizzard announced that number earlier today, and the company’s giving out gifts in celebration - namely, six free card packs from the most recent expansion, The Boomsday Project. You’ll get those free packs if you log in any time from November 7 at 10:00 PST / 13:00 EST / 18:00 GMT through November 11. You’ll also get a Celebrate the Players quests, which gives you 100 gold for playing a friendly challenge and is repeatable up to five times. Just make sure you’ve got room in your quest log for the new challenge. Hearthstone launched in 2014, and gathering 100 million players in that time is no small feat, even if it’s aided by free-to-play pricing and a popular mobile edition. The growth of the game hasn’t slowed down, either. Blizzard reported 70 million players halfway through 2017, so 30 million new players in about a year and a half suggests that the game isn’t slowing down.
