Unfrozen has just dropped an exciting new gameplay trailer for Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era, giving fans a deep dive into the strategic elements that define the game. The trailer highlights essential mechanics, diverse units, and the engaging gameplay that players can expect. In a thrilling announcement alongside the trailer, Unfrozen has opened registration for the closed beta test of the new "Arena" mode. Players eager to get their hands on this mode can sign up for access through the game’s Steam page, with the testing period set from March 17 to March 28.
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, the game will offer six distinct factions, three immersive single-player modes, and three competitive multiplayer modes. Ubisoft, taking the helm as the publisher, is set to bring this much-anticipated title to eager fans.
Recently, the developers pulled back the curtain on the Dungeon faction, revealing a roster that includes troglodytes, dark elves, minotaurs, medusas, hydras, and dragons. These units add a unique flair to the battlefield, enhancing the strategic depth that the game promises to deliver.
The team at Unfrozen has been candid about the challenges they faced while crafting the Arena mode, particularly with balancing skills and heroes within the constraints of limited space and no starting advantages. Despite these hurdles, the developers have successfully navigated these issues, ensuring a smooth and engaging experience for players.
While the game is slated for a PC release later this year, an exact date is still under wraps. Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era is being meticulously designed to cater to both long-time fans of the series and newcomers looking to dive into its rich strategic world.
