Heroes And Castles 3.0 Features New Characters, New Campaign, New Map And More
May 13, 2013
Heroes and Castles, the popular strategy game that combines castle defense and over-the-shoulder action, has just received its 3.0 update. And it's said to be the game's biggest update yet, even bigger than its 2.0 update, apparently.
Heroes and Castles 2.0, which arrived less than a month after the game was released in mid-January, introduced a new single-player Siege mode, a versus multiplayer mode, and a couple of new heroes.
This time, Heroes and Castles 2.0 adds several new heroes, a new campaign, a new map, and many other enhancements.
The new heroes are the deadly Assassin, the brawny Barbarian, and the otherworldly Druid. The new campaign, which unlocks only after the first campaign has been completed, offers new environments and new battles. And the new map gives you a new battlefield in the cooperative and versus modes.
