Capybara is bringing Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes to Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network later this year. This isn't just going to be a straightforward port of the DS game as Capy is giving Clash of Heroes the HD treatment!
The game will receive all sorts of awesome updates to it, such as hand-drawn artwork replacing the 16-bit style sprites and scenes. Clash of Heroes HD will also feature four-player versus or co-operative modes. A number of complaints about the DS version, such as how you couldn't go back to previous areas, will be addressed in the HD version as well.
We'll be getting a look at Clash of Heroes HD this week at the Game Developers Conference. If you have any questions for Capy, be sure to leave a comment below so we can ask them at our meeting tomorrow!

Hopefully they'll make Godric not suck compared to everyone else this time. You never, never, never make a CO whose super move is a cheap amount of defense when everyone else gets a big damage attack.
That's really the only problem the game had. Though now I'm curious how they'll format this version. it would have to be horizontally arranged rather than the DS's versions vertical arrangement.
And I hope this starts a trend of portable games getting console-ized HD treatments.

Match three units horizontally, you get a wall built for defense
Match three units vertically to set those units on attack.
And there's puzzle chains and such you can do.
So almost like a Critter Crunch type game wrapped in a fantasy RPG style?
thanks,
Oh, and I never had problems with Godric; I don't know why the hell everyone complains about that. It's not that hard to grind in this game; just get the dude to a high level and everything is much more manageable. His special power was actually pretty effing helpful against bosses too.
Might have to pick up the DS one and nab my mum's DS to play it on.
Very interested in this!
