File requirements

For the full game, provide owned Heroes III Complete or Shadow of Death data. The launcher can import a GOG offline installer or an existing installation. HD Edition alone is insufficient; it is an optional extension with Complete/SoD still required. The official mod directory separately documents limited demo support.

Based on public documentation; full builds and playthroughs have not been tested. Project documentation

Get started

Install VCMI and import your Complete or Shadow of Death data through its launcher.

Start guide

What it recreates

Reimplements the game engine while reading the original graphics, sound and text data. It is an independent community project, unaffiliated with Ubisoft.

What’s different

Adds high-resolution interface options, a mod launcher and an online lobby. Original-engine HD Mod is incompatible; HotA/WoG features depend on separate VCMI ports.

What you can use today

Release 1.7.5 is public. Windows, macOS, Linux and Android packages are listed; iOS uses TestFlight or sideloading. Full compatibility is not guaranteed. Not run by RemakeList.
