The trailer has sparked enthusiasm among the community, showcasing the intricate details that make this strategy game a must-watch. Alongside the trailer, Unfrozen announced the opening of registration for the closed beta test of the "Arena" mode. Eager players can now request access through the game's Steam page, with the testing phase set to run 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 boast six distinct factions, three engaging single-player modes, and three competitive multiplayer modes. Ubisoft, a powerhouse in the gaming industry, is taking on the publishing responsibilities for this eagerly awaited title.
In a recent reveal, the developers introduced the Dungeon faction, adding a thrilling layer of strategy with units like troglodytes, dark elves, minotaurs, medusas, hydras, and dragons. These units are set to bring unique dynamics to the battlefield, enhancing the game's strategic depth and offering players new ways to outmaneuver their opponents.
The team at Unfrozen openly discussed the challenges they encountered while developing the Arena mode, particularly in balancing skills and heroes within the constraints of limited space and the absence of starting advantages. Despite these hurdles, the developers have successfully overcome them, ensuring that the Arena mode will provide 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 has yet to be confirmed. The developers are meticulously crafting the game to cater to both long-time fans of the series and newcomers, promising a rich and accessible gaming experience for all.
