Hi guys.. over my years on the net there was one constant thing that I found when chatting to people online was that a lot of people love the Heroes of M&M series of fantasy strategy games.

After the release of the 2nd add-on pack for Heroes IV a few years ago the long time creator of the series New World computing was closed down when their publisher 3DO went bankrupt (party due to Heroes IV being a rushed out screwup). But then the might and magic name was bought out by the European company UBISOFT and up until this point I’ve been watching and waiting for their official announcement on a new sequel and it has finally come with a new website and screenshots of Heroes of Might & Magic 5!

Here’s 1 of the screenshots they released. You can see many of the traditional heroes map buildings here with beautiful detail. Oh and I’ll point out that these shots are showing off the engine so I’m sure that when playing the game normally you will still be in the traditional top down view that the previous Heroes games were played in.
