Heroes Chronicles update

According to the press release we just got from 3DO officially announcing their Heroes of Might & Magic Chronicles games, the first two episodes will now be released in September, with the second two in November, and the possibility of further episodes next year.

As we previously revealed, each of the four Chronicles will be a stand-alone game featuring a hero called Tarnum, who must overthrow the tyrants who rule his people, then fight his way through the underworld, help defeat an army of evil dragons, and finally take on the elemental lords. It's a hard life... 3DO are also promising a gentler learning curve than in previous Heroes games, which has to be good news for newcomers to the series. For the full skinny, read the press release.
