+# VCMI 1.6.0 released
+
+A new major release just arrived: VCMI 1.6.0! This time we focused on AI, visuals and numerous GUI and UX additions for even more immersive experience.
+
+<!-- more -->
+
+## Better visuals
+VCMI now can improve graphics quality thanks to smart xBRZ upscaling, plus support for high-resolution assets – perfect for high-resolution displays (and smartphones too). 
+
+## Smarter AI
+Our adventure map AI (Nullkiller AI) was greatly enhanced, and some combat AI tweaks also landed. 
+
+## Heroes Chronicles support
+If you own Heroes Chronicles on GOG, you can now import these campaigns seamlessly via the “import files” option in our Launcher.
+
+## Statistics and handicap
+New handicap feature can not only handle gold transfer known from PvP games, but also change growth and income to adjust game challenge over wide range.
+And once a scenario is finished, a new screen shows detailed statistics like resource flow and army power over time.
+
+## Spell research and quick spell panel
+We’ve added a simplified version of long-requested spell research, which you can enable through HotA mod. In combat, a new spell quick-selection panel (with optional hotkeys) makes casting your favorite spells faster than ever.
+
+## Handy shortcuts
+Holding **Alt** on the adventure map now highlights interactive objects. You can also re-roll spells in your town’s guild (via HotA mod), sort artifacts artifacts and more.
+
+## Full changelog
+There are hundreds of other improvements under the hood, from new modding features to campaign refinements and stability fixes.
