Horn of the Abyss is an unofficial – yet a true – Heroes of Might and Magic 3 expansion. It is made by a mostly Russian composed crew with various talented people. The expansion features – to name a few things – a completely new town ‘Cove’ (Pirates). HotA fixes bugs, adds a host of new expansion content, features an updated editor – and much more.

3. Third Upgrades mod for ERA 3

If you want more creatures, more artifacts, more everything…, be sure to try Third Upgrades mod (check YT videos). Each faction now contains the 3rd upgrade unit + the eighth alternative unit.

Free Heroes of Might and Magic II Resurrection is not only a remake of the original Heroes 2 game for current platforms but it also includes modifications of the game interface so that players can use certain mechanics in the most comfortable and intuitive way.

6. Heroes 4 HD mod (GL Wrapper)

Heroes 4 HD mod allows play Heroes of Might and Magic IV on 16:9, 16:10 screens. It is based on HoMM IV GL Wrapper, so it requires it. But download package has already the last version of GL Wrapper, so you don’t need download it separately.

It also changes the AI ​​and difficulty levels. Adds special units to each faction that can be recruited from cities. And much more, and there are still plans for new stuff. See for yourself and try the “Ultimate Edition” expansion!

Bonus: New Year mod for Heroes 2

The New Year Mod for Heroes of Might and Magic II is a Christmas-themed graphical conversion of HoMM2 assets intended to keep the original graphic style. The idea of this mod was born suddenly, when a few fellow forum members on Russian HandBookHMM.ru community in December 2014 thought about a new form of an offline tournament which would be able to revive the HoMM2 gaming community to some degree.

Bonus 2: New Year HD mod for Heroes 3

Graphic modification that adds animated winter main menu video, graphics created for Heroes 3 HD Edition by UbiSoft to the ERA 3 / Wake of Gods. This can be seen mainly in the graphics of the battlefields, heroes portaits and town screen, which is finer. Modification is still in development.
