• Heroes of History is marking one year of whimsical time-travel adventures
• This RTS RPG lets you enlist legendary personalities from across the ages
• A series of in-game events commemorate the milestone, with rewards available all month long

If you wanted to enjoy zany historical crossovers in the past, you might have turned to Epic Rap Battles of History. But with InnoGames' Heroes of History, you get a full-scale battle royale featuring iconic characters from different eras. Now, Heroes of History is celebrating more than a year of delightfully chaotic time-travel action!

As fans of InnoGames—creators of Forge of Empires, Elvenar, and Tribal Wars—would expect, Heroes of History delivers the same grand-strategy experience. But it adds a unique twist by letting you recruit a wide array of historical heroes, from Albert Einstein to Spartacus.

This offers a fresh take on the classic "summon legendary figures" concept. And to celebrate the game's first anniversary, players can earn special bonuses. Notably, all seasonal heroes from the past year will be available again from now until October 21st. At the same time, the Summon of the Stars leaderboard event runs until September 29th, offering generous rewards for recruiting heroes.

Historical hijinks

It’s no secret that players gravitate toward the most famous faces. That’s why, following a week of daily 24-hour Rate-Up promotions for heroes like Albert Einstein, Dracula, Joan of Arc, Marie Curie, Medusa, and William Wallace, a Legendary/Double Rate-Up weekend will run from September 26th to 29th.

So if you love history, Heroes of History is sure to surprise you—sometimes with inspired inclusions, other times with unexpected picks.
