Trivia
The subtitle "Writ of Fate" first appeared in
a story by Norwegian website gibme.com. This story revealed the existence of Might and Magic IX before there was an official announcement. When
asked for comment, a 3DO representative stated that the details mentioned in the article were subject to change, and specifically denied that "Writ of Fate" was the title. It is unknown whether "Writ of Fate" was a working title, but no officially released material from 3DO/New World Computing has ever used it.
