Heroes Of Might And Magic 3 Complete Edition Released Without The Game Files

Heroes of Might and Magic fans have been given a lot to be happy about over the last 24 hours. Not only was a remake of Heroes of Might and Magic 3 announced during Gamescom ONL, but a complete edition of the original game has finally been added to Steam. Well, kind of, as it seems Ubisoft forgot to add the actual game.

The remake revealed during ONL doesn’t have a release date, just confirmation that it will be here sometime in 2027. That’s likely why a lot of people flocked to the newly added complete edition on Steam to fill the Heroes of Might and Magic void in the meantime. However, as spotted by PC Gamer, some of those early adopters were left incredibly disappointed.

That’s because, after parting with $14.99, which is a steal for a version of this game that finally includes all of its add-ons and expansions, they were left with a 23.49 KB file to install. I know games were a lot smaller back when Heroes of Might and Magic 3 was first released in 1999, but clearly, something wasn’t right.

The thing that wasn’t right, and the reason the file size is so small, is the game doesn’t actually include a copy of the game. Players were met with an error message when trying to launch the game because there was no game to launch. I’m unsure how exactly a mistake this monumental happens to anyone, let alone a studio the size of Ubisoft, but it happened, and it led to a swath of negative reviews for the game’s complete edition within hours of its release.
