Justice League Heroes is an action game with role playing customization featuring DC Comics’ most powerful and renowned team of super heroes. For the first time ever on current generation consoles, 1-2 players can play as Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Zatanna and Martian Manhunter - plus other unlockable super heroes - together to save the world against a legion of notorious DC Comics’ villains.

Developed by Snowblind Studios, the game employs the fourth generation of their renowned current generation console technology previously seen in Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance, Champions of Norrath, and Champions: Return to Arms. It also includes a detailed visual style, an intense cooperative combat system, customizable super powers unique to each character and an engaging storyline by Emmy Award-winning writer Dwayne McDuffie.

The rundown with the story this time is that Brainiac and his villain cronies have developed a master plan to conquer the world and eliminate the Justice League forever. Using the extraordinary super powers and expert fighting techniques of Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Wonder Woman and other favorite DC Comics super heroes, players must join the Justice League to ultimately save humanity from Brainiac’s destruction and the even darker forces that are lurking in the universe.

7 playable super heroes, plus other unlockable characters, each with unique super powers and combat styles based on the iconic characters.

Compelling gameplay featuring both hand-to-hand and air-to-ground cooperative, combat using a vast arsenal of character-specific super powers.
