- publisher: Ubisoft
- platform: PC
Might & Magic: Heroes VII is the next installment in the popular turn-based strategy game series. The storyline of the game is focused around a civil war for the reign over the Empire. The campaign features a young prince named Ivan, from the house of Gryphon, the creator of the Shadow Council, which unites the representatives of six different factions.
The game offers the players six playable factions: Haven, Academy, Necropolis, Stronghold, Sylvan and Dungeon. The basic mechanics of Might & Magic: Heroes VII are extremely similar to those of the last few installments of the series, which makes the production a mixture of a turn-based strategy game with RPG elements. The players will spend their time in the game exploring the map, gathering resources and using them to build mighty strongholds.
Many of the mechanics which were missing in the last installment have been reintroduced, the simplistic economic system which featured only four resources has been removed, granting players seven different materials to gather.
