The Lich King defeated at Gamescom 2017 – Hearthstone
Convention attendees bring down the game's first raid boss.

Just moments ago though, we heard that The Lich King had been defeated by the gathered masses at the Kolnmesse, concluding the challenge. Here’s video of the announcement, complete with a deflated Lich King walking off-camera with his head down…
