We have just released a new major update, VCMI 1.6, with improved AI, better upscaler, Heroes Chronicles support, game statistics and much more!
You can find the download links at: https://vcmi.eu/download/
For Android you can install VCMI directly from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=is.xyz.vcmi
The most notable features of this release are:
- Our adventure map AI (Nullkiller AI) has been greatly improved, and some improvements have also been made to the combat AI. Expect even more adventure Map AI improvements in upcoming 1.6.X releases.
- VCMI now supports the xBRZ upscaling filter, similar to the one used by HD Mod. In addition to that, VCMI now supports high resolution graphical assets that can be provided by mods. If you own the HD Edition, you can use this exporter to create a mod for VCMI with HD Edition assets: https://github.com/Laserlicht/vcmi_hd_mod A more user-friendly integration of the HD Edition into VCMI is planned for future updates, possibly in 1.7.
- The game will now display statistics after scenario completion, such as amount of resources owned by players, army strength or hero experience over time (and numerous other parameters).
- If you own Heroes Chronicles on gog.com, it is now possible to import these campaigns into VCMI using the "backup offline installer" from gog.com and the "import files" option in the VCMI launcher.
- VCMI now has its own version of spell research, which is disabled for SoD and can be enabled by installing the HotA mod.
- Added quick spell selection panel in combat, including the option to bind spells to hotkeys.
- Pressing Alt on the adventure map will now display an overlay highlighting all interactive objects.
These are just the highlights, check out the full changelog with over 200 changes here: https://vcmi.eu/ChangeLog/
We have also managed to maintain save compatibility with 1.5 releases, so you can continue your game if you wish. However, it is recommended that you start a new game or restart a scenario for campaigns (or finish your ongoing 1.5 games first).

This is great, thank you for the hard work.
We occasionally play this with friends, me on linux and they on windows and everything works very well.
Very excited for the AI improvements!
