Hearthstone is celebrating the Lunar New Year with a new card back, returning Tavern Brawl, legendary quest chain and festive cosmetics.
Dancing Lion card back
If Hearthstone players haven’t already done so, then they can sign in and claim a free Dancing Lion card back. This card back was designed by Xi Luo, who won a contest. According to the announcement, Luo is also a Hearthstone fan.
“This has special meaning to me,” Luo said. “It’s a dream come true to design something that gets added to a Blizzard game, and I’m very glad to see players looking forward to getting this card back. A huge thanks to the people who supported me.”
Hearthstone players have until Feb. 8 to claim the Dancing Lion card back.
