Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era developer Unfrozen has announced a publishing partnership with Hooded Horse, the publisher behind Against the Storm and Manor Lords.
The announcement was made via a post on the game’s Steam page, three weeks after its Early Access launch was postponed to an unspecified date later in 2025.
According to the announcement, the initial publisher of the title, Ubisoft, will remain involved as the holder of the Heroes of Might & Magic IP.
Notably, the initial plan was to release Olden Era in Early Access in the second quarter of 2025, as this would have coincided with the franchise’s 30th anniversary.
The new entry in the Heroes of Might & Magic universe will feature six different towns: Temple, Necropolis, Sylvan, Dungeon, and Hive, with the last faction yet to be revealed.
Music for the upcoming Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era will be written by one of the main composers of the previous entries in the series, Paul Romero and Cris Velasco, well known for working on such title as Mass Effect, God of War and Starcraft II. It is worth noting that Romero’s scores for Heroes of Might & Magic were so popular that he was ‘obliged’ to compose his first symphony based on the best musical themes from the games. His Symphony No. 1, completed in 2008 was entitled Heroes.
