Book of Heroes

Book of Heroes is a single-player game mode first released on September 15, 2020.

It uses a classic linear adventure format with an appearance similar to Dungeon Run screen. Book of Heroes is about telling the journeys and stories of the heroes who represent the classes in Hearthstone, like Jaina Proudmoore. Most of the stories told in this game mode are based on canonical stories of World of Warcraft.

Book of Heroes will feature a chapter for each of the ten current classes, for a total of 80 missions or bosses. It is completely free to play and available to everyone. Additionally, completing a class's story rewards the player a corresponding class pack.

Mage was the first class and Jaina Proudmoore's story was the first story to be introduced. New missions will be released over the course of the coming months.

Structure

Book of Heroes's Choose Hero menu

For general information on adventures, see Adventure.

• Book of Heroes comprises 80 boss encounters in total.
  • The encounters are split into 10 class' stories, making each consist of 8 encounters.
• The player is given pre-made deck for each boss encounter, controls a special hero with their corresponding Hero Power, and gets special interactions between their hero and boss.
• During a class' story, the player must encounter the bosses in order and cannot choose the specific ones.
  • However, if the player loses an encounter, the player can try again without being reset to the first encounter, unlike Dungeon Run or similar modes.
    • The player can press the "Retire" button, which is under the player's hero portrait, to be reset willingly.
