Each character and faction is separated into different types, each with their own distinct abilities.
There is a dense, deeply constructed and fascinating world made here. There are demons, elves, undead creatures, wizards, knights and all kinds of orcs and ogres in between. You can send these characters out to explore the different environments on the game’s large map where you can find treasure, claim castles and most importantly, battle enemies! The more battles you win the more experience points you gain, allowing you to level up and gain new skills and abilities that make your armies even more formidable! If you’re familiar with other strategy and fantasy games, many of the tropes and features should be familiar. The game is full of “hero” characters and various armies that you as the player will control.
Much like the previous games in the franchise, Might and Magic V follows a familiar formula.
