Pros

New faction looks lovely and offer units never seen in the series before.
Dynasty weapons that you can level up are a great idea.
If you've enjoyed past Heroes games, you're going to like the gameplay of Heroes VI.
Core gameplay is as addictive as ever; updates enhance the experience and streamline some of the more complex aspects.
Tons of content and play options.

Cons

Ubisoft's online strategy is an insult to paying customers.
Game has too many glitches for what is supposed to be a finished retail product.
While some of the additions are great.
Heroes VI falls into the trap of relying on tried-and-true gameplay.
Lots of little visual bugs and glitches.
Constant internet connection requirement is a miserable beast.
Baby-punching difficulty.

Might and Magic Heroes VI may have some issues with battlefield tactics in the late game and its story, but the strategy remains a blast nonetheless. Near infinite hours of gameplay await, and anyone looking for a well-made and addictive turn-based...

Might & Magic Heroes VI is a solid but unremarkable addition to a classic franchise - just about a return to form, but nothing more than that and coated in unnecessary out-of-game frippery....

The Might and Magic series' long-running strategy-RPG gameplay is still a lot of fun. Yet this fun finds itself beset by a number of glitches, a lack of real strategy, and Ubisoft's insulting online strategy. Before starting my review of Might...
