Well, my day has been made. A couple of weeks ago, I almost broke down and bought Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes for DS, thinking that Capybara's high-def version for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade was stuck in development hell.
Not so! Joystiq reports that the studio has finalized mid-April as its release window. Incredibly reassuring news after such a long period of silence.
Between the slick hand-drawn art, rebalanced units, and online multiplayer, this is looking like an absolute must-buy. April 13 is my birthday, guys. You know what to do.

Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
I'll keep my eye on this.
His special? Extra defense that can be chewed through with ease in one turn. Turtle tactics, basically. Every other character was good, though I still find it weird that all units face the player.
Unless it turns out that is only out for XBLA that day and we don't get a definitive release day for PSN (damn you Beyond Good & Evil!)
Very unique and innovative title. And super fun and addictive to boot!
It not coming to PC despite being perfect for steam etc. is sad, insulting even given the franchise's history.
