Ubisoft officially announced Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Remake during Gamescom Opening Night Live. The project aims to bring the classic title to modern audiences, serving as a pillar in the company’s broader strategy to revive the long-dormant strategy franchise.
Quick Facts
- Platform: PC
- Release Date: To be announced (TBA)
- Strategic Context: Part of a 2022 roadmap including the current early access title Olden Era
According to creative director Jean Felix Monin, the decision to develop the remake stems from a desire to reconnect with longtime fans who have not revisited the series in recent years. This effort runs parallel to the release of Olden Era, which is intended to offer a “fresh take” on the series' core mechanics.
Player Reception and Availability
The announcement has sparked immediate discussion regarding the game's updated art style. While the remake remains in development, purists looking for the original experience can access the classic version through the recently re-released complete package currently available on Steam.
As of now, Ubisoft has not provided a specific launch window, demo, or pre-load schedule for the remake. Further updates regarding store availability and release timing are expected as the project progresses.
