Heroes of Might & Magic III - HD EditionHeroes 3 HD (High Definition) edition was released on 29th of Jan 2015, almost 16 years since the release of Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Restoration of Erathia.

Heroes 3 HD release contains only the original Heroes 3 game without the two expansion packs Armageddon's Blade and Shadow of Death. The features and improvements introduced by the expansion packs, including most notably the random map generator, are not included in the HD release. The reason for this is that Ubisoft could only obtain the source code for the base game, not for the expansons. The task of re-programming the expansion packs from scratch was too big to undertake.The attractive features of Heroes 3 HD are:- enhanced graphics for larger screen resolutions (see ).- a new online multiplayer lobby.- HD release is available for mobile platforms iOS and Android.Heroes 3 HD had a mostly negative reception. The main reason was that Ubisoft's product description was too vague: ' Heroes III – HD Edition content is based on the original 1999 game: The Restoration of Erathia' was not adequate to let excited fans know that both of the game's expansions are missing from the HD release, given the general unspoken expectation that 'HD' releases always upgrade the game's features as opposed to downgrading them. Bugs and slow animation provoked the remainder of the discontent.
