Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era Gets Gameplay Trailer Ahead of Early Access Launch

Hooded Horse, Unfrozen Studio, and Ubisoft release a new trailer for Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era ahead of its Early Access release at the end of this month. The three-minute video shows world exploration and combat with each of the six factions that will be available. The strategy RPG will launch on Early Access for PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store on April 30, 2026, and is currently expected to fully launch after around a year.

Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era takes place on the continent of Jadame, which has been mentioned in the series but not previously visited. Gameplay sees players expanding the castles and kingdom while sending out heroes and armies to explore and defeat foes. The campaign sees rival factions banding together to defeat the Hive, a swarm of insectoids corrupted by a demon lord. There will also be various single maps and randomly-generated scenarios, as well as a selection of competitive multiplayer modes and a map editor that will let players share their creations with others.
