Unfrozen has unveiled an exciting new gameplay trailer for *Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era*, giving fans a deep dive into the strategy game's mechanics, units, and overall gameplay. The trailer highlights the game's rich strategic elements, setting the stage for what promises to be an engaging experience. Alongside the trailer, Unfrozen has opened registration for the closed beta test of the "Arena" mode. Enthusiasts can sign up for this exclusive testing phase via the game's Steam page, with the beta scheduled to run from March 17 to March 28.
*Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era* is slated to enter early access on Steam in the second quarter of 2025. At launch, players can expect a robust offering with six distinct factions, three immersive single-player modes, and three competitive multiplayer modes. Ubisoft, taking on the role of publisher, is poised to bring this eagerly awaited title to the gaming community.
In a recent reveal, the developers introduced the Dungeon faction, featuring a diverse roster of units including troglodytes, dark elves, minotaurs, medusas, hydras, and dragons. These units add a unique layer of strategy to the game, enhancing the overall depth and complexity of the battlefield.
The team at Unfrozen has been candid about 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, they have successfully overcome these issues, ensuring that players will enjoy a seamless and engaging experience.
While *Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era* is anticipated to launch on PC later this year, an exact release date has not yet been disclosed. The developers are committed to crafting a game that appeals to both long-time fans of the series and newcomers, promising a strategic experience that is both accessible and deeply rewarding.
