Gameloft announces ‘Heroes: The Mobile Game’

Gameloft who is a leading publisher of Java games for mobile phones has announced the launch of their new game “Heroes: The Mobile Game”. The game is based on NBC’s television series.

Created via a worldwide licensing agreement with Universal Pictures Digital Platforms Group, the mind-bending game chronicles fan favorite moments from Season One, but also offers a unique, exclusive spoiler from Season Two that will not be revealed to fans until later in the season.

In order to access the Season Two spoiler, only available via the mobile game, players must locate a hidden room containing a secret that sheds light on a long-standing show mystery. They have to be alert, as the game can be completed without clearing the secret room.

“We are always looking for organic ways to extend the Heroes story in the transmedia landscape,” said Tim Kring, creator and executive producer of “Heroes” “The Gameloft project afforded us a perfect opportunity to begin revealing an important Season Two story point before it actually hits the television screen.”

“With such a massive fan-base, we knew it was critical to work closely with the writers and producers of the television series to develop a game that matched the dynamic atmosphere,” said Gonzague de Vallois, senior vice president of publishing, Gameloft. “Surpassing expectations is what we aimed for and achieved with the game, so we are very happy with the end result and look forward to fans enjoying it worldwide.”

Written in collaboration with the show’s writers, the storyline features the best moments from Season One and chronicles the lives of ordinary people who discover they have extraordinary abilities. Players can experience the excitement of super-human powers by the playing the role of Hiro, Niki or Peter as they sneak into places unnoticed, save lives with their super powers and fight enemies with astounding skill. Players are able to fully immerse themselves in the Heroes universe as additional characters from the show make appearances from time to time and help players in their quest to save the world throughout 11 levels and four locations: New York City, future New York City, a museum and Las Vegas.

Heroes: The Official Mobile Game is available now through most U.S. carriers.
