We have some good news and some bad news for fans of MMORPG’s and classic turn based strategies – Heroes of Might and Magic Online has entered open beta. Now the bad news – it’s only in Asia. And some more bad news – even if you happen to be able to register and download the game, there will be IP restrictions meaning that anyone without a Asia-based IP address will not be able to log in to the game legally. But worry not – Ubisoft has already announced that they are working on a western localization for the game, so it’s only a matter of time before we are able to play the game as well.
Where did you hear there was a western localization? The only Game I’ve been told they are planning to bring to the west is HoMM Kingdoms, which is a Browser-Based Game with quite a few restrictions of it’s own.
