Avast, me hearties! Prepare to set sail on a swashbuckling adventure as we delve into the depths of this exciting project! ‍Arr, this be one of the many Hearthstone 2.5D cinematic trailers we've had the honor of illustrating. Hearthstone is a free-to-play online collectible card game (CCG) that builds upon the existing lore of the celebrated World of Warcraft (WoW) series from Blizzard Entertainment.

Hearthstone: Deadmines is a cinematic trailer promoting a pirate-themed mini-set, adding 35 new collectible cards to the ‘United in Stormwind’ set. This expansion takes place in the twisting tunnels and hidden chambers of Deadmines, one of World of Warcraft’s most iconic dungeons. This miniset puts the infamous Edwin VanCleef and the Defias Brotherhood in the spotlight, a bandit gang that once sought to overthrow the Kingdom of Stormwind.

Watch the full swashbuckling trailer to see our illustrations and art come to life below! But proceed with caution, the Defias gang are known to plot in the shadows…
