Five was a failure??? What are you talking about? Maybe I'm not very knowledgeable, but it seemed to me that with the release of the fifth installment, many acknowledged that this game was better than the previous ones, and the Heroes series gained new fans!

Interesting. Well, as far as I know, they should announce a new race soon. I'll be waiting :).
At the end of 2006, Ubisoft announced that the game wasn't even among the top 15 projects that met fan expectations, and many criticized the game. A lot of new fans appeared after the add-ons, although mostly because of the orcs.

They wouldn't make two add-ons for a failed game, plus a total of 2 million copies were sold. Considering that the game is only for PC and has no DRM, that's quite acceptable, and Nival even earned $10 million from the fifth installment. However, it seems that Ubisoft is trying to adapt Heroes to more modern gaming standards to make the game appeal to a larger number of players.
By the way, Ubisoft earned more from the sale of the add-ons than from the base game Heroes 5. 2 million copies in 2-3 years isn't much, considering that I was talking about the failure of Heroes 5, not the add-ons, and by the way, 2 million for Heroes 5 plus 2 add-ons is very little. Assassin's Creed 2 sold 2 million copies in the first week alone, just for PC, and there were also 4 million on Xbox and 3 million on PS3, so you can see where the real failure is.
