• Android tablet build is just about done. They're still looking to release it before the end of the year.

commentary at touch arcade 12/15

http://toucharcade.com/2014/12/15/hearthstone-android-soft-launch/

the game has soft-launched on Android today [in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand on Google Play. If you come from the land of iOS, where getting soft-launched games is a trivial endeavor for anyone, you may be disappointed to learn that getting Android soft launches is a bit harder.

Basically, your device has to be in the country that the app is soft-launched in. Changing that either requires rooting your device and using a country-changing app like this though I can't vouch for it actually working, or using this guide with VPN. It's quite likely that someone will wind up uploading the APK of the game somewhere, so I'd just hold out for that, or just wait for the global launch.

Any rooted phone which is not running the latest android version (lollipop).

Wonder if this thing will work on the Nexus 9.
