GDC 2010 Video: Might And Magic: Clash Of Heroes HD Coming To XBLA, PSN
Are you still giddy from Game-Boy's Puzzle Quest 2 hands-on? Well fans of the unique pairing of puzzle and RPG mechanics will be happy to hear that Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes HD will be making its way to Xbox Live Arcade and the Playstation Network later this year.
Not content to simply port one of the best handheld games from last year, Capybara Games is updating the visuals with beautifully drawn HD characters and environments, new four player co-op and versus online multiplayer modes, re-balancing of some of the DS version's overpowered artifacts, and the ability to revisit previously completed chapters in the single player campaign. I'm not always a fan of developers replacing perfectly good pixel art when bringing their games to HD, but after seeing Capybara's upgrade in motion it's hard to raise an objection.
With no price or date set yet for Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes HD, I can only hope that there's a decent gap between it and Puzzle Quest 2. I don't think I could handle two addictive timesink puzzle RPGs at the same time.
