Blizzard unveiled the brand new Knights of the Frozen Throne expansion for Hearthstone a couple of weeks ago, and they’ve just announced the official release date for it as well. Players can expect to jump into the new content this week, on August 10. For those who might be a little more reluctant to shell out some cash for the new cards, they can still be obtained through the Arena mode and spending in-game currency.
