Heroes Wake

”Our time has come,choose a side and become a legend or villain in this strange multiverse.”

-The Game’s Marketing Tagline used before and during release.
 * Heroes Wake:Age of Legends as it’s full title or shortened to just Heroes Wake is a massive crossover action-adventure platformer third person shooter spectacle fighter acting as a giant nexus of all different franchises with a great plot awaiting the player. It was released in Summer of 2015 in the state it is with watered down ports for the Wii and 3DS that are different to the mainstream console versions.

Gameplay

 * The game plays like a spectacle fighter crossed with a platformer. It is any platinum spectacle fighter but with elements of Ratchet and Clank involved with large sandbox hub worlds with the stages being contained within different worlds themed to each world with every level being neatly packed to the edge with tons of enemies to slay and collectibles. There is also at times racing sections,puzzle sections,stealth sections and the occassional third-person shooter with weapons gained from enemies or in-story reasons. The watered down Wii U/Wii version is more of a 3D Beat‘em’up Platformer hybrid whilst the Vita version plays similar to the wii and Wii U version but portable and the 3DS version is a 2.5D platformer with lots of combat. You can also create lots of combos and use varying mixed attacks on enemies and such in the practise dojo/gameplay with these combos usually contributing to a meter in the HUD called Icon Power which allows you once you’ve dealt enough damage or collected enough coins to use an ultra-powerful attack unique to your character to wipe out enemies or even boss battles.
