Unfrozen has recently unveiled an exciting new gameplay trailer for Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era, spotlighting the game's intricate strategy elements, diverse units, and immersive gameplay. This trailer has heightened anticipation among fans eager to dive into the game's rich world. Alongside the trailer, Unfrozen announced the opening of registration for the closed beta test of the "Arena" mode. Interested players can sign up for this exclusive testing phase via the game's Steam page. The beta test is scheduled to run from March 17 to March 28, offering a sneak peek into this highly anticipated feature.
Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era is gearing up for an early access launch on Steam in the second quarter of 2025. At its debut, players can expect to explore six distinct factions, engage in three single-player modes, and battle it out in three multiplayer modes. The game's publisher, Ubisoft, is set to bring this eagerly awaited title to the masses.
In a recent reveal, the developers introduced the Dungeon faction, adding a new layer of strategic complexity to the game. This faction includes unique units such as troglodytes, dark elves, minotaurs, medusas, hydras, and dragons, each bringing their own special dynamics to the battlefield.
The team at Unfrozen has been candid about the challenges they faced while developing the Arena mode, particularly in balancing skills and heroes. The limited space and lack of starting advantages posed significant hurdles. However, they have successfully navigated these issues, ensuring that the Arena mode will offer a smooth and engaging experience for players.
While Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era is slated for a PC release later this year, an exact date is yet to be announced. The developers are committed to crafting an experience that will captivate both long-time fans of the series and newcomers, promising a game that is both accessible and deeply strategic.
