So Ubisoft must be really proud about the new Might & Magic Heroes VI game because they have sent so much information that because I’m not a fan of the series I’m not even going to read though it all (sorry). To kick things off here is the trailer;
Enjoy that? Well then Might & Magic Heroes VI is exclusive for the PC and is due out sometime in 2011, here is the main section of the press release I’ve been given;
The Might & Magic Heroes VI adventure starts 400 years before the events in Heroes of Might & Magic® V, showcasing a family of heroes in a thrilling, epic story where Angels plot to revive an unfinished war.
A legendary Archangel general killed during the war of the Elder races returns to life with a vengeance. Under the cover of preparations for an upcoming Demon invasion, he unites the peoples of Ashan to eradicate his ancient enemies.
