Synopsis

The game is the third title in the series in Ubisoft's continuity, and serves as a prequel to Heroes of Might and Magic V, taking place in the fictional world of Ashan before the events of the game (producers Erwan Le Breton and Romain de Waubert noted it as being 40 years before the cycle of Heroes V and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, an average of 946 YSD in the timeline).

The game's story mode centers around its five main protagonists: Godric, Aidan, Anwen, Nadia, and Fiona, who command knights, demons, elves, wizards, and necromancers, respectively. Godric and Anwen previously appeared as playable characters in Heroes V, while Cyrus, Findan, and Markal make their return in screenshots. The protagonists are described as five lost children whose lives are turned upside down by "a mysterious demon lord with very sinister motivations". This demon lord turns out to be Azh Rafir, Nadia's father, who has hatched a crazy plan to use a powerful artifact known as the Binding Blade to open the gates to the demon world of Sheogh and drown Ashan in chaos. In Fiona's story, we see that he worships Urgash, the dragon of chaos. In Aidan's story, it is also shown that Aidan unknowingly took the Binding Blade. After learning that her own father had shattered her and her friends' lives, a heartbroken Nadia decides to fight Azh Rafir in his demon lord form in the story's climax. After defeating him, she destroyed the Binding Blade and ultimately foiled her plan, bringing peace to Ashan.
