We are pleased to announce that this year the Might & Magic team will be present at PAX EAST, which takes place from March 22nd to 24th in Boston.
Those who come there will be able to play two games from the universe: Might & Magic: Heroes VI - Shades of Darkness and Might & Magic Duel of Champions, and also ask their questions to Hervé Le Breton (creative director), Julien Pirou (creative designer and screenwriter), and Irina Cassina (responsible for community development).
Some of you have probably already noticed a strange page: http://might-and-magic.ubi.com/universe/ru-RU/x.aspx Various rumors have begun to circulate around it... But we will reveal its meaning only at PAX EAST.
Is it Limbic who is developing this masterpiece?! Stanislavsky
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!
Added 2 minutes later at least one thing is pleasing: Ubisoft has at least kept some tradition from the old series: the next part of Might and Magic takes place in the world of the previous Heroes game.
Added 44 seconds later hmm... I would play that, and if I like it, I'll buy the full version.
Added 5 minutes later by the way, does it seem to me, or were some models taken from Dark Messiah?

I don't know about that, but I did notice models from Heroes of Might and Magic V and VI. They're cutting corners on the brand.

The first three are clearly from Heroes of Might and Magic V. Hangwul, Tolgar, and Rolf, unchanged. But I think this is temporary, something like an alpha version. I hope so.
Among the photos from the recently concluded PAX, there’s only one featuring a Might & Magic screenshot, and it shows an archer from the 5th installment, a party of 4 heroes, and the good old directional controls in the bottom left corner (are they serious? O_o). Also, to the left and right of the heroes, you can see empty small portraits, presumably for mercenaries that no one is refusing. We’re waiting!
The inventory looks intimidating. Will they make it as bad as in Heroes 6?Ment
It looks more like Heroes 6.
In Heroes 6, they don't have upgraded armor, do they? And here, it seems more like the blue archer from Heroes 5. Or am I just getting old? I haven't played Heroes 6 in a long time.
But in terms of style, I agree, complete copying isn't good.

Well, in the previous installments, the monsters were mostly copies of their counterparts from the strategic series. The difference is that due to the "strategic" model sprites, it wasn't possible to import them. But here, they decided to save on models and use one of the series' "features."

On the one hand, yes, this has been done before, but on the other hand, they could have at least changed them a little. Using the same models in two games looks rather bad, because, no matter how hard you try, the models in a strategy game are worse than they should be in any first-person game.

I don't remember the models from Heroes of Might and Magic V very well (I last played it a couple of years ago), but it seemed to me that they were improved to match the overall level. Honestly, otherwise they would contrast too much with the models from Heroes of Might and Magic VI (the units in the fifth game are depicted more grotesquely).
