Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era marks a deliberate return to the strategic foundations of a franchise that helped define the PC landscape decades ago. Developed by Unfrozen and published by the strategy specialists at Hooded Horse, this prequel returns players to the world of Enroth, specifically the long-unseen continent of Jadame. Slated for an Early Access launch in the second quarter of 2026, the title emphasizes a classic hex-based combat system while introducing fresh mechanics like active hero abilities and sub-faction specializations. By prioritizing the non-linear exploration and tactical depth of the third entry, the team aims to modernize the series without losing its traditional soul.
