Or ‘Heroes of Might & Magic VI’, as it should have been called. The strategy-roleplaying hybrid series has graced the PC for decades, but many fans feel it’s been downhill since game number III. The sixth in the deathless fantasy exploration and army-b...
Might & Magic Heroes VI is a solid but unremarkable addition to a classic franchise - just about a return to form, but nothing more than that and coated in unnecessary out-of-game frippery...

There’s a couple of schools of thought as to how you work out the best person to review a game. Some say you should get fans, people who know that series back to front, have played it all and have many even once or twice pretended to be a game charact...

I've put more time into Might & Magic Heroes VI than I will in almost any other game this year. The sheer amount of playable content is daunting, and makes this turn-based strategy title one of the best value propositions I've ever encountered. I expec...

The Might and Magic series' long-running strategy-RPG gameplay is still a lot of fun. Yet this fun finds itself beset by a number of glitches, a lack of real strategy, and Ubisoft's insulting online strategy. Before starting my review of Might and Magi...
New faction looks lovely and offer units never seen in the series before; Dynasty weapons that you can level up are a great idea; if you've enjoyed past Heroes games, you're going to like the gameplay of Heroes VI.
Ubisoft's online strategy is an insult to paying customers; game has too many glitches for what is supposed to be a finished retail product; while some of the additions are great, Heroes VI falls into the trap of relying on triedandtrue gameplay too much. The maps of Might and Magic: Heroes VI are goodlooking and have a more 'open' feel than the maps of Heroes of Might and Magic V.
