Hearthstone players can get their hands on 150 free packs. Here's what you need to know.

There are plenty of online, card games for players to get stuck into, plenty of which are gaining traction, like Marvel Snap. But long before the popularity spike of 2022 was Hearthstone, attracting fans of the Warcraft series to the realm of turn-based, card-collecting battles.

Part of the fun comes from collecting the cards, which can be retrieved by opening Card Packs. Each pack has five cards, with the possibilty of being of Common, Rare, Epic or Legendary rarity. From time to time, Blizzard has given out a number of Card Packs for free — and it seems one such offer is happening right now.

How to Get 150 Free Packs in Hearthstone

Blizzard's gift of 150 free packs seems to only apply to older players who haven't logged into the game for quite some time. It's unclear exactly how long you'll need to have been gone from Hearthstone in order to be eligible, but if it's been a while — maybe a few years — consider hopping back in.

To check if you've received the gift, open up the Battle.net launcher and head to the '!' icon with a jagged ring around it. The icon should be in the top-rightof the launcher, next to your username.

Eligible players should receive the "Welcome Back Gift" from Blizzard, containing 150 free packs. The gift expires on Dec. 31, 2022.
