Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition is a remastered, content-enhanced version of Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes, a combination of a turn-based strategy, an RPG and a puzzle game. It was developed by Capybara Games, the same studio responsible for the original game, and published by Dotemu.
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition is set in a fantasy world, in the land of Ashan, 40 years before the events of Heroes of Might and Magic V. The game tells the story of five heroes trying to save the world from a demonic conspiracy.
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition makes use of a top-down perspective. Although the game has plenty of exploration, conversations with NPCs and quests, as expected from an RPG, it mostly revolves around combat.
Battles are turn-based, players controlling various units, each with their own strengths, weaknesses and abilities. To succeed, we must take advantage of their strengths, position them correctly and chain their attacks into effective combos.
As we progress, we recruit new party , hire mercenaries, acquire powerful artifacts and spells, as well as develop our heroes and units. All this lets us face gradually grander challenges.
In addition to its single-player campaign, Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition features an extensive, rebalanced multipler mode. We can play locally or online, competitively (1v1, 2v2) or in co-op, or against the AI.
The remastered version also includes the I Am the Boss expansion, letting us play as one of the game's bosses outside the campaign.
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition features colorful, cartoonish visuals. Compared to the original release, the game stands out thanks to its remade character portraits.

Game Ratings for Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition Video Game.
NintendoWorldReport: 8.5 / 10 by J.P. Corbran
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes has held up very well despite many similar games coming out in the intervening years. It offers a high level of depth in its battle system that keeps you coming back, and is especially well suited to the Switch's handheld mode that makes it easy to say "just one more battle."
Digital Chumps: 7 / 10 by Nathaniel Stevens
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes – Definitive Edition from DotEmu is a decent game thanks to a clever mixture of RPG, puzzle, and strategy structure. It has a compelling storyline that reminds you of an 80s/90s RPG gaming world, and it has plenty of characters to play around with on the battlefield. It falls short with unbalanced gameplay that always leans towards enemy advantage and the control mechanics that can be incredibly finicky at times.
Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by Mitch Vogel
Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes – Definitive Edition is a worthwhile remake of a somewhat obscure puzzle classic. Its clever integration of light RPG elements on top of the puzzling action gives it an impressive amount of strategic depth, while the rotating cast of characters and factions offer plenty of variety in unit types and playstyles across its run. Add this to a strong multiplayer component, and you have a game that easily justifies the cost of entry. Though we were put off a bit by its difficulty spikes and the woes of RNG, this is ultimately a game that we'd give a strong recommendation to anyone looking for an interesting new puzzle game to add to their Switch library.
