Experience Might and Magic* in stunning 3D!
Explore a graphically realistic universe filled with dark
foreboding dungeons and lush outdoor environments. Create
and lead a party of four player characters and up to three non-
player characters in your quest. Develop each character's skills
in the talents of either Might or Magic. Master the new intuitive
interface, new Spell Combat system, and new Conversation
system. It's a whole new adventure with an all-new look.

Story
It was just supposed to be a simple supply run from Chedian to
Mendossus, but fate intervened with a storm powerful enough
to leave you shipwrecked! Your adventure begins as you and
your party find yourselves shipwrecked on the Isle of Ashes.
Yet strangely, it is this unfortunate catastrophe that kept you
and your party safe from the bloodthirsty Beldonian Horde that
is now poised to invade your homeland of Chedian. Your
destiny begins to unfold when you learn that you are the only
chance for Chedian's survival, and that you must unite the six
clans of the Chedian against the Beldonian Horde. The fate of
your peaceful homeland rests in your hands!

Dear Might and Magic fans,

If you're an old time fan of the Might and Magic series, then
you're in for a real treat. We've taken your excellent suggestions
and used them to make what we think is the best Might and Magic
ever. If you're new to Might and Magic, you are about to take your
first step into a world that is filled with fantastical monsters,
foreboding dungeons, and legendary heroes.

We've made tons of new changes that will make this experience as
fun a game experience as you've had. We've enhanced the skill
system, made the dungeons better, and the monsters smarter. Due to
your suggestions, the NPCs you hire will once again be able to
fight alongside you in your quests.

We had a great time making Might and Magic IX, and hope you will
have as much fun playing it as we did making it.

Have fun!

Sincerely,
Jon Van Caneghem
Creator and Designer
Might and Magic I-IX
