Hooded Horse to publish new Heroes of Might & Magic game

Publisher Hooded Horse announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Ubisoft and developer Unfrozen. Hooded Horse will publish the latter’s upcoming turn-based tactics title, Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era. The game launches in early access on PC later this year, coinciding with the series’ 30th anniversary.

Ubisoft revealed Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era last year, to be developed by Unfrozen, the fledgling studio behind strategy game Iratus: Lord of the Dead. Hooded Horse also has a background in the space, having published Manor Lords, Against the Storm and Endless Legend 2. CEO Tim Bender said in a statement, “Heroes of Might and Magic is a legendary series, one that has a place in the hearts and childhoods of many gamers. We’re honored to be teaming up with Ubisoft and Unfrozen on this project.”
