In the twilight of the Era of World Wonders, when one alliance controls 4 out of the 7 Wonders, the Age of Heroes will begin. This 2.0 Feature will bring about new units, divine powers, increased armies, and much more. There will be a number of ways in which a player can access the Hero Worlds once they have opened.
Hero Worlds
A Hero World is an extension of the normal Grepolis worlds. These worlds offer a new goddess with new powers and mythical units, increased building levels and new structure graphics. In addition to that the Hero World academies offer brand new technologies, which will add new dimensions to the game. Hero Worlds were created specifically for experienced players. A special award is required for players who are not in the winning alliance as a prerequisite to enter the Hero Worlds. This award can be earned in the normal Grepolis worlds.
Basic Hero World Rules
To qualify for Heroworld entry, the player must earn the award Heroic Tactician Award.

- 3 farming villages will be available on each island.
- The building levels of the cities will be as followed:

The academy will receive 6 new technologies for the levels 31-36.

Artemis, the Patroness of Hunters
 |
A new god is available on the Hero Worlds, or to be precise a goddess: Artemis. She will introduce 4 new spells to the game and also add new mythical units to the battlefield.
She is a strict and gruesome god, and hostile towards all men. As ruler of the animal kingdom she is the master of the Calydonian Boar, and commands the Griffins in the sky. Her divine powers can cause her enemies to hallucinate. However she can also strengthen the aim of distance fighters and cleanse the spells of enemies. Her versatility in battle is a force to be reckoned with. |

When do the first Hero Worlds start?
The first Hero World will be launched on December 15, 2011. All players who have access rights may then join the new Grepolis adventure.
- For those worlds which have 4 Wonders being completed at the same time, they will spawn a joined Hero World. So for example: if Worlds Alpha, Beta, and Gamma all complete the Wonder requirements, a single Hero World will spawn for the three worlds.
Further Hero World information will be released later this month.
