Ubisoft announces the release of The Lost Tales of Axeoth: Unity, a new free
campaign for all
Might & Magic Heroes VII players that comes with a new
version 1.7 update for the strategy sequel. Here's word on what they're up to
here:
Today, Ubisoft® released UNITY, the first of two free downloadable
content pieces for the turn-based strategy game Might & Magic® Heroes® VII. For
20 years, Might & Magic Heroes titles have combined a deep fantasy universe with
a complete strategic experience, with a rich RPG progression and a strong story
narrative. UNITY is the first part of The Lost Tales of Axeoth, a free
two-campaign downloadable content piece which brings scripts that were
originally written for Heroes of Might & Magic® IV to life.
In UNITY, players will take control of the Academy faction through the story of
Genevieve Seymour, whose odyssey takes place in a new and unexplored world in
the aftermath of the Reckoning. This event destroyed the world of Enroth and
centenarian knowledge of magic. Genevieve aims to recollect the lost spells and
to create a brand new philosophy of magic: the Theory of Unity. But her quest is
not without pitfalls, as few sorcerers want to give up their precious knowledge.
UNITY features 10 hours of extra gameplay across five new maps, and includes
more than 80 returning characters and creatures from Heroes of Might & Magic IV.
The Lost Tales of Axeoth have been developed as a mod for Might & Magic Heroes
VII, and all the new game elements available can also be used freely by fans to
create their own maps and mods.
The Lost Tales of Axeoth is being developed by Limbic Entertainment, a team of
devoted Might & Magic fans, who are celebrating the franchises’ 20th anniversary
by recreating and updating the fan-beloved Heroes of Might & Magic IV within
Might & Magic Heroes VII.
The Lost Tales of Axeoth: Unity is now available for free as part of the 1.7
update for Might & Magic Heroes VII.
