Deadbeat Heroes to Launch on October 10th
Square Enix Collective has announced that Deadbeat Heroes, Deadbeat Productions’ brawling crime-caper set in a comic book-inspired world, will hit Xbox One (and PC) on Tuesday, October, 10th, 2017.
The game is said to bring together agile movement with awesome superpowers and a whole host of wise cracks, Deadbeat Heroes charges players with dodging bullets by leaping, dashing, wall-running, climbing and backflipping their way to victory.
The UK-based studio was founded by former Lionhead & Rockstar developers Adam Langridge and Imkan Hayati, with the two men having earned their stripes working on big name triple-A franchises before setting out to make a mark on their own.
Deadbeat Heroes will launch with 40 levels, each one populated by an array of different enemies who can be tamed with movement based attacks and 9 over-the-top superpowers. With the ability to block attacks intentionally removed the result is a style of combat that encourages swift reactions and a focus on versatility.
