What is Might & Magic®?
Created in 1986 by Jon Van Caneghem & New World Computing, Might & Magic® started as a first-person RPG with its very first episode, “Secret of the Inner Sanctum”. This original game quickly became one of the historical pillars of the genre. Generations of gamers explored the lands of Varn, Terra, Xeen and more amazing worlds (the latest of which is called Ashan and serves as the setting of all of Ubisoft’s Might & Magic® games) to live epic adventure with their teams of fearless raiders and adventurers. But soon, role-players weren’t the only ones to spend hours on Might & Magic® games anymore…The depth of its fantasy setting & the consistency of its universe permitted, with complementary and exciting different gameplays, to offer unique experiences for all tastes. One of them particularly stood out in the heart of gamers: the Might and Magic® Heroes saga.
