Video game publisher Ubisoft says that the new Shades of Darkness expansion for its turn-based strategy Might & Magic Heroes VI will be available at retail on the PC on February 28 of next year, with new content to satisfy long-term fans of the universe.

The company says, “Starring the cult hero Raelag, first introduced in Heroes V, this fully fledged standalone game will feature a new faction, Dungeon, led by the Dark Elves, and two new campaigns unveiling another piece of history in the Might & Magic Universe.”

One day later, on March 1, players will also get access to a new retail package called Might & Magic Heroes VI Complete Edition.

It introduces the base game, all launched bonus maps and items, new adventure packs, the original soundtrack and the already mentioned Shades of Darkness expansion.
