Might & Magic Heroes 6 beta starts on June 28, pre-orders in first

by Mike Schramm on Jun 2nd 2011 6:02AM

Ubisoft has announced that the latest iteration in the seminal fantasy strategy series, Might & Magic Heroes 6, will get a closed beta starting up on June 28. The announcement trailer for the beta is posted after the break and, as you can see, it features plenty of updated mechanics and gameplay systems, new graphics, and lots of strategy nerdery to geek out with.

Pre-ordering the game early will get you access into the beta, which means you'll get to see both single- and multiplayer content before the game arrives in stores on September 8.

I could have sworn alliance was spelled with two 'l's.

@goozira It's broken, hence the one L.

Looks like Heroes V, which is in no way a good thing.

Looks like it might be another decade of playing Heroes III for me.

@Jenks On the plus side, it doesn't look anything like Heroes IV which is a good thing in every way.

@Jenks What don't you like about Heroes V? Its pretty much almost exactly like Heroes III with better graphics.

@Jenks

Besides I would like to try the demo first and then buy it. Maybe they know the game sucks hence demo is only for preorders?

A little secret: DA2 demo was the reason I didnt buy the game

@exahex

...I'm sorry, but no. Thinking about HOMM V makes me want to never stop vomitting, and I am an avid HOMM III player.

And of course I'm going to try the demo, I hope the game is good, I used to love this series. Now I just love part of the series.

Looks just like 5, which really started to bore me after a couple hours. Not interested in the beta since there are so many other great games coming soon. I'll check out reviews once it has launched, but I'm not holding out hope it will somehow be much improved over Heroes V.
