Blizzard has announced what season 2 of Hearthstone Battlegrounds will include when it launches at the end of the month – and some players aren’t happy.READ MORE: What the hell has happened at Activision and why should you care?Alongside quest mechanics and two new heroes, the planned update to Hearthstone’s auto-battler mode will bring with it a new paid season pass that will give buyers access to a premium tier of its reward track.The first reward of the track is two additional hero slots, which will not be obtainable any other way.

This means players who don’t pay will be stuck choosing from two random heroes, while those on the premium tier will have the choice of four.

Previously this expanded choice could be bought with gold earned while playing the game, but not anymore.Explaining the change, Blizzard wrote: “We want Battlegrounds to be played and loved for years to come.

This change will allow us to continue to support and make content for the growing Battlegrounds community. Though the ability to choose from among four heroes at the beginning of a match is changing to a paid-only feature, all players can still play Battlegrounds for free.
