Ubisoft has announced that the Might & Magic franchise is returning with the development of Might & Magic Heroes VI, which will be available on Windows PC sometime in 2011.
“Might & Magic is a powerful franchise with an amazing 20-year legacy,” said Adam Novickas, director of marketing at Ubisoft U.S. “Players will be able to enjoy the Heroes experience like never before. The amazing creative teams at Black Hole Entertainment are keeping the original Heroes spirit, while enhancing the RPG elements.”
The Might & Magic Heroes VI adventure starts 400 years before the events in Heroes of Might & Magic V, where an 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.
