Zheros

About

Zheros is a 3D beat 'em up where you control two distinct characters navigating alien worlds in chaotic combat. Play as Mike the brawler or Captain Dorian the tactical leader as you punch through waves of enemies across sci-fi settings. The single player campaign tasks you with stopping a mad doctor’s plan to turn lifeforms into soldiers while the co op mode lets you team up for shared mayhem. Fast paced brawling focuses on simple button mashing but layered with special moves and environmental interactions. The game stands out for its goofy tone and vibrant art style blending retro arcade energy with modern 3D polish. Community reviews note the fun factor of fighting mutated aliens in absurd locations though some call the story thin. With cooperative play and a runtime around 8-10 hours it offers a quick punch of action that fans of classic beat 'em ups might appreciate. The 2016 release remains a niche title with a small but vocal group of players praising its unapologetic over the top violence.

Storyline

In a journey through distant and unknown galaxies, you will play as the members of the Zheros squad: Mike and Captain Dorian. Brave, strong as awkward and dim-witted the first one; agile, smart and ready for anything the second one. They are both intergalactic agents called to protect the galaxies from crime. Your mission: defend the universe from the evil Dr. Vendetta and his twisted plan to mutate every living creature in his trusted minions.
