Ubisoft might like to have a loss-leading HoMM game when it leads potential buyers to subscribe to Ubisoft game services. I do not seeing them announcing anything of significance. In fact I would probably bet money that we do not see an announcement in the next five years. Heroes VII fumbled, way harder than it should have in my opinion. A lavishly produced sequel to the turn-based strategy game series, Heroes of Might and Magic V offers six intertwined single-player campaigns with six factions, each lasting scores of hours. You'll command a Hero and his army, building the power of each during battles with marvelously animated creatures and other powerful Heroes. The game has a long-lasting gameplay, outstanding musical score and cheese-Wiz dialogue. Heroes 5 is legitimately good. After Heroes 4 changed some of the core mechanics of the franchise, Heroes 5 makes a nice return to (mostly) traditional Heroes gameplay. It has a few quirks, such as the battle camera and perceived map size, but there are also some nice additions, such as the initiative system. SNmWA.
