For all those looking forward to the game, Ubisoft has released an interview with Rob King, the composer for all the Heroes of Might and Magic series. In addition, anyone who wants can download the musical themes for Haven, Academy, Sylvan, and of course, the Main Theme. Go to the link above. ;)

Please note!
On the British official website http://mightandmagic.com/uk/
a message about the Deluxe Edition has appeared.
Click on the image to view it in a larger version.
Pay attention to the booklet!
Trent's artwork has been redrawn!

There was also some information about two more heroes from the Academy.
Moreover, in the description of Haven, it is clearly stated: jewels from the Dwarven mines.
[offtopic]Where are the dwarves? With so many references to them, they should have been given the Dungeon. Especially since the coolest artifacts are of their production.
And regarding the treants - if this is true (and it seems to be), then I was wrong. I haven't seen such emaciated trees before.[/offtopic]

Of course, the first thing I asked Dmitry was to give me half an hour of happiness alone with the mouse and monitor. The request was granted, and for that time, I completely dropped out of reality.

A lumber mill. A treasure chest (do you take gold or experience?). A dancing leprechaun. Everything is familiar and recognizable – and at the same time, new and amazing. The camera obediently followed my desires and showed the picture from one angle, then from another, then further, then closer – I just couldn't tear myself away from this landscape: the reflections of a lonely campfire, a mill on the horizon, and this incredible forest, swaying, rustling, and alive. Having reached the nearest tower, I opened another piece of the map and was stunned: in front of me was a Castle. The spiers of the towers, the winding bridges and spans, and on top – the symbol of belonging to the orange player. I couldn't just walk past the Castle. I wanted to look and ask many more things, so I decided to take a quick look inside – after all, what interesting things can be done with a standard building system?

P.S. It's worth buying the magazine even just for the poster that comes with it.

The release date has been announced on the English website Ubisoft. It is 05/19/2006.

A preview of the pre-release version of the game Heroes of Might and Magic V has been published on the "Heroic Corner" website! See how Nival Interactive managed to improve the game: http://heroes.ag.ru/h5/press/h5_preview.shtml

Those who haven’t seen it yet can check out the new Necropolis heroes.

Changes from the demo have been made to the unit statistics section on the the-genies-lamp.com website, in case anyone is interested.

Apparently, all statements about the simultaneous release of the English and Russian versions turned out to be false:(
As a result, the Russian version will indeed be protected by StarForce, since Ubisoft is not the publisher in Russia.
Regarding the release date, I found May 23 on the Igromania website, but I don't know if this is the final date or not:)

Moved the remaining posts on this topic to a more suitable thread.

See what they are writing on DTF:

Although the information has not yet been officially released, we are eager to share the news with the label "urgent": Nival Interactive has completed the development of the long-awaited turn-based strategy Heroes of Might and Magic V and sent the gold master to the worldwide publisher, Ubisoft. For now, this only concerns the English version (its release is on May 23); the Russian version will be sent for finalization no earlier than in 2 weeks; the publishing rights for it belong to Nival itself, and the distributor in our country and neighboring countries is the company 1C. Be that as it may, we wholeheartedly congratulate everyone involved!

The English version will be released on the 23rd, and the localized version in two weeks?:confused: :eek:
