What a weekend it has been for Heroes of Might and Magic fans. First, I'd like to congratulate Pumba for being crowned the champion of H3GG's tournament. Even though I do not speak Polish myself, I did spend some considerable time watching matches this weekend.
However, the tournament also provided fans of Heroes of Might and Magic
with some really exciting news. Unfrozen gave us more information about Olden Era. Unfortunately, not knowing anything about the Polish language, I couldn't really gather much from the interview that was held in connection to Olden Era's video showcase. I did pick up words like "insectoids", "necromancers" etc. Maybe some of our Polish readers could help us out here?
I did manage to find an upload of the video shown here, what do you guys think of it?
The Day of Reckoning team (which I am a part of, just as a disclaimer) unveiled a brand new teaser showing updated graphics, and 3 new towns, Forge, Palace and Grotto. What's especially interesting is that Paul Anthony Romero has composed music for the Forge town, part of it which is being shown in the video now available on YouTube(here). Paul Romero composed the track for the Forge town all the way back in 2019, meaning that the team has been holding it a secret for 5 years.
VCMI also held a presentation showcasing some interesting updates. For those that love to analyze and dive deep into the outcomes of a game, they will display statistics after a game, giving insights on efficiency and more. They also showed off some new features coming in VCMI 1.6 such as a new optional feature that will be their implementation of spell research.
We also saw updates from the Horn of the Abyss Crew, which showed off some stunning graphics in a cutscene named "All In", which is from the HotA crew's upcoming campaign.
All in all (no pun intended), it's been a great weekend for anyone interested in Heroes of Might and Magic. It's a shame that so much of the tournament was delivered in Polish, but please do let me know in case I missed some important news!
What do you think was the most exciting news from this weekend?
