Warner Bros recently announced the debut of the Justice League on current generation consoles and today have released the first screens from the title. 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.
