What’s new in Heroes 1 Remake

FirstHOMM keeps the 1995 original intact while adding modern conveniences and new content on top of the classic experience:

• Cross-platform support — native builds for Windows 11 and macOS (Apple Silicon M1+), so you can play on modern operating systems and hardware.
• Six additional languages — play in more languages than the original release supported. DE, FR, PL, RU include translated buttons. ES, IT use English buttons.
• Restored intros from the 1995 CES Demo — two long-lost intro videos recovered from the 1995 CES demo build, including the New World Computing intro. They play on startup and are fully skippable.
• Select a starting faction in single player games — You can now adjust any randomized starting faction from the standard game menu. It is still initially randomized, but you can now adjust it while setting the game parameters.
• A brand-new campaign — an extra campaign game beyond the original with some new twists and victory conditions.
• Optional modern enhancements — toggle any of these on or off from the Modern Options menu:
  • Allow spellcasting in AutoBattle
  • Unit stack splitting within hero armies and garrisons
  • Alternate Hydra structure art (from the 1995 CES Demo)
  • Build status indicator on the castle locator
  • Battle hex tile outline
