 ⚫︎ Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era Early Access delayed to 2026, demo now available (Gematsu)

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era Overview

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era is an upcoming turn-based fantasy strategy game developed by Unfrozen and co-published by Ubisoft and Hooded Horse as an official prequel to the classic series. The series returns to the world of Enroth, specifically the previously unexplored continent of Jadame, where six distinct factions—including the knightly Temple, the undead Necropolis, and the demonic insectoid Hive—must navigate ancient rivalries while uniting against a growing, apocalyptic threat.

It still incorporates tactical overland exploration and strategic resource management, coupled with hex-based, turn-based combat, introducing new features such as Faction Laws for unique kingdom-level perks and unit-specific Active Abilities to deepen tactical options.

The game is being developed for PC via Steam and is scheduled to release in Early Access sometime in 2026.

Image

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era maintains the core turn-based strategy loop of exploration, kingdom building, and tactical combat. Players manage Heroes to scout the world map, gather resources, and develop their main town, all in a competitive race to overpower rivals.

The game introduces key innovations to the formula, including Faction Laws that grant unique, realm-wide bonuses, and a deeper Hero progression system featuring subskills. Furthermore, the hex-based combat is modernized with a Focus resource that enables units to use unique Active Abilities, adding a new strategic layer to every battle.
