Ubisoft is working with developer Unfrozen on a new entry in the classic Heroes of Might and Magic series, which will be titled Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era and is due to enter early access for the PC in Q2 2025.
The announcement was revealed at Gamescom 2024 to celebrate the franchise’s 30th anniversary in 2025.
The early access period should last a year and will include just a short snippet of the game’s full story, including multiplayer modes for limitless randomly generated maps, and creative tools so players can create their own maps and multiplayer templates.
Here’s an overview from Steam:
Heroes of Might & Magic Olden Era is a new installment of the renowed series of turn-based strategy games, where action takes place in Enroth, on the continent of Jadame, mentioned but never explored in a Heroes of Might & Magic game before. Traverse a vibrant and living fantasy world full of wonders and dangers, build magnificent capital cities, raise massive armies and clash in epic, highly tactical battles of heroes and mythical creatures.
Play solo with a new campaign, multiple single maps and limitless randomly generated scenarios, or engage in battle of wits and magic with other players — rivals or allies — in multiplayer mode. There is also an option to build your own story with the map editor tool, which you may make available to all the players around the world or keep to yourself.
