Might and Magic Heroes 6_Shades of Darkness

The Might and Magic franchise turned 20, and Ubisoft has released a new video with Jon Van Caneghem, the father of the Might & Magic Heroes saga, discussing the inception of the brand, as well as its growth over the years. if you have ever enjoyed the Might and Magic games, this video is something you absolutely must watch.

In addition, as part of the 20th Heroes anniversary and to thank the community, some free content will be released post-launch for Might and Magic Heroes VII. Thanks to the very advanced modding tools available in Might & Magic Heroes VII, the team has planned to deliver eight unproduced Heroes IV maps. Based on scripts written by Heroes IV’s original writer, Terry Ray, these stories will finally be brought to life with Heroes VII’s engine, and will enlarge the already massive content present in the base game.

These modding tools will also be made available to the community as well, so players can continue to make maps and content for the game even after they are done with everything else.

Might and Magic Heroes VII launches on September 29, exclusively for Windows PCs.
