Our take on The Wonderful 101: Remastered
The page gives considerable attention to the 100-hero premise and remaster improvements, while the playable structure is more specific: missions combine combat, puzzles, rescues, and optional multiplayer. The large cast is presented as a headline feature, but the listing provides limited detail on how individual heroes differ.
What is The Wonderful 101: Remastered?
An action game about a global team of 100 heroes defending Earth from alien invaders.
Players switch between weapons and structures by drawing shapes, using forms such as swords, whips, hammers, bridges, and hang gliders.

The game includes more than 100 characters with individual backstories and emblems. Shared-screen multiplayer supports up to four players, with cooperative or score-focused play. The remaster includes improved visuals, framerate, and loading times, along with the Time Attack mode, the After School Hero DLC episode, and a demo offering two hours of content.
