Heroes Video Game Announced


Ubisoft announced that plans are in the works for a 'Heroes' video game based on the hit TV show. The game will be third person, and will not just focus on one hero, but on the entire cast.

From Hollywood Reporter: "Instead of highlighting a specific character's heroic journey, the game will focus on the entire ensemble cast. The game also is expected to play a crucial role in how the show's writers explore cross-platform storytelling for future seasons."

If the game is anywhere near the show, this will be a definite buy for me.
