Hearthstone developer is not ‘planning on any new classes at this time’

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft is going to stick with nine classes for the time being.

Publisher Blizzard has done a lot to keep its card battler Hearthstone feeling fresh — like releasing single-player adventures and introducing the Tavern Brawls. But one thing it doesn’t plan to do — at least in the near future — is add a new playable class. Hearthstone senior game designer Ben Brode confirmed as much on Twitter when a fan asked about the possibility of a specific new class coming in a planned update that is coming July 22.
