Our take on ZHEROS
The defining detail is the mech: when encounters become dangerous, the squad can bring in a machine armed with rockets and lasers alongside its hand-to-hand combat.
What is ZHEROS?
ZHEROS is a 3D beat’em-up set across distant galaxies, where Mike and Captain Dorian confront Dr.
Vendetta and his plan to mutate living creatures into minions. Combat centers on punches, combo chains, hi-tech weapons, and encounters with robots and bio-mechanical creatures. A mech equipped with rockets and lasers can join fights during dangerous situations. The game supports single-player and local co-op play. Character development allows upgrades focused on physical strength or weaponry. The journey moves through two worlds with unusual characters, locations, and encounters, leading to a mystery at its conclusion.
