Unfrozen has unveiled a new gameplay trailer for Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era, offering a glimpse into its core mechanics, diverse units, and overall strategic gameplay. The trailer accompanies the announcement of closed beta registration for the game's "Arena" mode. Players can sign up for a chance to participate via the Steam page, with testing running from March 17th to March 28th.
Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era is slated for Steam Early Access launch in Q2 2025. At launch, players can expect six distinct factions, three single-player campaign modes, and three multiplayer modes. Ubisoft is publishing this highly anticipated title.
Recently, the Dungeon faction was revealed, introducing a compelling roster of units: troglodytes, dark elves, minotaurs, medusas, hydras, and dragons. These units introduce unique strategic elements to the battlefield, adding significant depth to the gameplay experience.
Unfrozen Studios acknowledged the development challenges faced in creating the Arena mode, particularly in balancing hero and skill sets within the constraints of limited space and the absence of starting advantages. However, they've successfully overcome these hurdles, promising a polished and engaging competitive experience.
While a precise release date for the PC version remains unannounced, the developers aim to deliver a title accessible and enjoyable to both seasoned fans of the series and newcomers alike. The game is expected to launch later this year.
