The post Blizzard faces parent’s proposed lawsuit over Hearthstone cards appeared first on Destructoid.
Harris proposed suit concerns the randomized nature of Hearthstone’s purchasable card packs, which they believe “deceive” children and younger players with promises of rare cards without fully disclosing the odds.
Blizzard Entertainment and beleagured “loot box” mechanics are back in the legal crosshairs once again after an Arizona resident filed a proposed class-action lawsuit against the studio over its popular digital card-battler Hearthstone, currently played by millions on PC and mobile platforms.
It should be noted that Blizzard has recently won a similar lawsuit over loot box purchases within arena shooter Overwatch.
