Unfrozen has unveiled a fresh gameplay trailer for *Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era*, highlighting key elements such as mechanics, units, and overall gameplay dynamics. This exciting reveal comes alongside the announcement of registration opening for the closed beta test of the "Arena" mode. Enthusiasts eager to dive into this new feature can sign up for access through the game's Steam page, with the testing period set from March 17 to March 28.

*Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era* is slated to hit early access on Steam during Q2 2025. At launch, players can expect a robust experience with six distinct factions, three immersive single-player modes, and three engaging multiplayer options. Ubisoft, taking on the role of publisher, is set to bring this much-anticipated title to fans around the globe.

In a recent update, the developers introduced the Dungeon faction, which adds a thrilling layer of strategy with units like troglodytes, dark elves, minotaurs, medusas, hydras, and dragons. Each unit contributes unique dynamics to the battlefield, enhancing the game's strategic depth and offering players a diverse range of tactical options.
