What it feels like
The framing emphasizes a 'triumphant return' of the franchise and a heroic arc of restoring a realm. The narrative sincerely invests in the story of succession, duty, and the six advisors' journey without irony.
What it's about
An epic secondary world of magic, myth, and good-versus-evil stakes defined by the succession war and realm restoration. Six heroes undertake a quest to restore order and defeat the forces threatening the realm. The succession war and factional conflict over the throne drive the political backdrop and story branching.
How it plays
Turn-based tactical combat on a grid is definitional to the Heroes franchise and core to moment-to-moment play. Discrete turn-based alternating combat is the essence of the game and franchise identity. Assembling and directing a squad of distinct creatures and heroes across the campaign is central to strategy and progression.
How it's structured
A bounded, authored story arc driven by the succession war and the journey of six advisors to restore order forms the narrative backbone. A linear story spine of the succession conflict is punctuated by explorable zones and side content across Ashan's lands. The campaign and story-driven experience prioritize single-player progression, though multiplayer modes exist.
