ZHEROS – Xbox One

January 16 – February 15

ZHEROS is a new gen 3D beat’em up, based on the genre hallmarks, above all: smashing hordes of enemies and punching stuff.

In a journey through distant and unknown galaxies, you will play as the members of the ZHEROS squad: Mike and Captain Dorian. Brave, strong as awkward and dim-witted the first one; agile, smart and ready for anything the second one. They are both intergalactic agents called to protect the galaxies from crime.

Your mission: defend the universe from the evil Dr. Vendetta and his twisted plan to mutate every living creature in his trusted minions.

In single player or in co-op mode, you can rely on your punches, using a rich selection of combos, and on powerful hi-tech weapons, but if that was not enough, a strong and destructive mech will come to the rescue in the most dangerous situations.

From bizarre characters and encounters to strange locations, find out what mystery awaits you at the end of your journey.

But when a black ops team uses a plan you designed to break in and kill the scientists you were hired to protect, everything you thought you knew about your job changes. At a time when scientific advancements are routinely turning athletes, soldiers and spies into super-enhanced beings, someone is working very hard to ensure mankind’s evolution follows a particular path, and you need to discover why – the decisions you take and the choices you make, will be the only things that can change it.
