Ubisoft has announced that they will publish Heroes Over Europe worldwide, after snagging the right to the game from former publisher Atari. It will be released on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this September.
The sequel to Heroes of the Pacific, the World War II flight combat game, Heroes Over Europe builds on the game’s impressive legacy with intense dogfights, a highly detailed realistic visual presentation and even more online options.
“We are pleased to be bringing Heroes Over Europe to retailers worldwide,” said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and marketing, Ubisoft. “The action-packed gameplay and realistic imagery in Heroes Over Europe will help bring some of history’s most exciting air battles to life for an experience that gamers will enjoy.”
Developed by Transmission Games in Melbourne, Australia, and powered by an all-new engine, Heroes Over Europe is set to raise the bar for flight combat games with the all new “Ace Kill” close combat action, four online modes supporting up to 16 players and fully customizable aircrafts with localized damage. Visually, the game takes no prisoners with meticulously rendered environments including faithful recreations of London, Berlin and the French Alps, and ultra-realistic iconic warplanes of the era, all presented in stunning high definition graphics.
Here is the debut trailer for the game.
