Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes for PS3 is Coming to PSN

[PS3 News]

Today Capybara Games Co-founder and President Nathan Vella has announced that Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes for PS3 is coming to PSN.

To quote: We've teamed up with our pals at http://www.ubi.com/US/default.aspx to bring you http://www.capybaragames.com/might-magic-coh-hd/.

Now, some of you might be thinking, "what the hell is this game?" Well, imagine for a moment that the lovely Mrs. Puzzle and dashing Mr. Turn-Based Strategy got together and made a baby - that baby would be the battle system.

Now, take that baby and raise it up on RPG adventuring, and you've got Might & Magic Clash of Heroes, a puzzle/strategy/RPG hybrid in 2D HD!

Now, when Clash of Heroes was first published last year, it was showered in critical love and received http://www.capybaragames.com/might-magic-clash-of-heroes/ giving Capy lots of reasons to celebrate.

And, to celebrate we have taken all the awesomeness of the original, and ratcheting it up to 1000. Now we're back on the awesome PlayStation Network with online & local versus multiplayer, a new co-op multiplayer mode, tons of balancing tweaks, new unit abilities and so much more.

Also, we've taken our love of both high-definition 2D & traditional animation, and combined them to create the stunning visuals of Clash of Heroes. Critter Crunch artists Qiqo & Sylvain have joined forces with the rest of Capy's amazing art team to bring you thousands of frames of 2D HD goodness.

Capy believes that 2D gaming has a bright future ahead of it in the HD era, and we're proud to be a part of a small group (alongside upcoming PSN awesomeness like http://shankgame.com/) trying to push 2D HD as far as it can go.

I've included some screenshots in this post but, in September, you will be able to see the game in action on your PS3! As well, Clash of Heroes will be playable in the Ubisoft booth at this year's http://www.e3expo.com/, so definitely stay tuned for more news on this game.

i really like these graphics. being raised on 2d video games created a soft spot for them. the premise of this game sounds enjoyable, and i'm looking forward to any in-game video that gets put on the web.
