The puzzle RPG quickly became popular among fans of the genre, despite the game bearing little resemblance to pastMight & Magicgame releases. Now a new generation of puzzle game fans can experienceMight & Magic: Clash of Heroes.
As its name implies,Might & Magic: Clash of Heroestakes place within thepopular UbisoftMight & Magicfranchise. It’s story even serves as a prequel toHeroes of Might and Magic 5.

Players will match groups of units together on their “battlefield,” attacking foes lined up across from them in turn-based combat.
