Nomad Games and Balor Games have announced HeroQuest: Digital Edition, an officially licensed adaptation of the iconic tabletop dungeon-crawler. Revealed during The MIX Fall Showcase, the game is set to launch on PC via Steam in 2027, with a closed beta playtest starting soon. The digital version brings the classic fantasy adventure to life, featuring the sinister Dread sorcerer Zargon and four brave heroes: the Barbarian, Dwarf, Elf, and Wizard. Players can lead the fellowship to destroy Zargon's forces or take on the role of the evil sorcerer themselves.
HeroQuest: Digital Edition supports flexible multiplayer for up to five players, including solo play, online co-op for up to four heroes, and a fifth player acting as Zargon. The game features tactical turn-based combat where players roll dice to determine outcomes, emphasizing teamwork and strategic positioning. A Quest Editor with built-in mod.io integration allows players to create and share custom quests, ensuring endless replayability.
