Heroes of Might and Magic III Remake will receive three graphic styles — Ubisoft compared the “classic” version with the original
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Players can customize various elements of the remake or use preset option bundles.
During the debut showcase of Heroes of Might and Magic III Remake, some players criticized the graphic style. The developers listened to the feedback and discussed “Playstyles” in a recent dev diary.
By this term, the developers mean a set of features that will help players customize gameplay. Players will be offered a choice of three preset packs, as well as a fully customizable “playstyle.” Thanks to this system, it will be possible to configure visual elements — color, lighting, object scale, camera, as well as gameplay parameters, such as combat and movement speed, and animation toggles.
Classic Playstyle. The goal of this preset, the developers explain, is to “recreate the Erathia you remember, so that experienced players feel right at home from the very start of the game.”
To come as close as possible to the visual style of the 1999 original, the developers adjusted the color grading to bring back the image's “soft oil painting aesthetic.” In addition, in the classic style, the developers specifically increased the sizes of creatures, heroes, and certain objects on the map to improve readability.

The developers also noted a higher angle and greater camera zoom-out distance:
Compared to what you saw in our previous announcement trailers and gameplay videos, the camera in the classic playstyle is positioned further away by default and allows you to zoom out further, providing a much wider view.
Old trailer:
The creators of Heroes of Might and Magic III Remake also showed the “Immersive” style. It allows you to view the game world from an angle closer to the ground. The main priorities of this style are “modern graphic quality, a seamless display of the world without abrupt transitions, and deep immersion into its atmosphere.”
The Strategy style is designed for experienced strategy fans who value efficiency and fast decision-making: “In this style, smooth camera transitions are disabled, and the adventure map grid and stamina points are highlighted for maximum clarity.”
