About HoMM: Olden Era

Olden Era is set 500 years before the events of the original Heroes of Might & Magic, on the war-torn continent of Jadame in the world of Enroth. The game launched in Early Access on April 30, 2026 to massive success — over 250,000 copies sold in the first 24 hours and a "Very Positive" Steam rating. With six unique factions, procedurally generated maps, hot-seat and online multiplayer, and a full campaign unfolding throughout Early Access, Olden Era is shaping up to be the HoMM revival fans have waited decades for.

Each faction brings completely distinct mechanics: Necropolis raises the dead after every battle, Grove links towns with a teleport network, Dungeon units swap between two attack stances, Hive swarms with insectoid numbers, Schism grows stronger with each consecutive victory, and Temple excels at buffing its armies with holy power. The depth is staggering for an Early Access title.
