New keyword: Colossal[]
- The ocean floor is home to many massive monsters unlike anything you’ve seen before. These giant creatures are too big to fit on one card! Minions with the Colossal keyword come with extra appendages that synergize with their main body in powerful ways. These appendages are summoned with the main body, even if the Colossal minion wasn’t played from hand.[1]

New keyword: Dredge[]
- Don’t you hate it when the one card you need is at the very bottom of your deck? Not any more! Dredge is a new keyword that lets you look at the bottom three cards of your deck and pick one to bubble up to the top of your deck. You can combine these Dredge cards with new Azsharan cards that send a powerful “Sunken” card to the bottom of your deck. Whether it’s sunken treasures, your cool new Legendary, or a well-timed damage spell, Dredge can help you get just what you need.[1]

History[]
On March 7th, 2022, Blizzard revealed several upcoming announcements for the Warcraft franchise, including Hearthstone's next expansion and Core set to be revealed on March 15th.[3] However, on the 14th it was announced that the Hearthstone announcement was being moved to March 17th instead.[4]
On March 16th, the official Hearthstone twitter posted a short video of the porthole of a submarine passing by various locations, with the accompanying text "It's almost time to set sail, adventurers!"[5] Shortly afterwards, information about the expansion was mistakenly uploaded to Google Play a day early, revealing the expansion's name and pre-order hero.[6]
Trivia[]
- Voyage to the Sunken City cinematic is the first trailer to feature neither a lyrical song nor narration, instead being electronic dance music.
- Voyage to the Sunken City cinematic was made by Mooncolony.[7]
- Among the first expansions of each year, Voyage to the Sunken City is the first to be announced before the year's theme is revealed.
- The flavor text of Druid of the Reef (“Wow, there’s a whole sunken city down here!”) was an early reference to this expansion.
