Heroes Raid

Always-online 3D action RPG. 2021 - In Progress.

Lionheart Global Corporation

Building Heroes Raid, an always-online 3D action RPG set in a dark, dystopian world of angels, demons, firearms, swordsmanship, magic and advanced technology. It's on Steam ahead of release, with alpha testing running through Discord. The game talks to its API server constantly and is built to scale to millions of players, with free-to-play monetisation and a new-content-every-week model.

• A story told in acts, from a dream above a rain-soaked city to an escape from armed soldiers on a train, with cutscenes along the way, and dungeon raids generated procedurally so no two runs are the same.
• Play solo or in online co-op, with a squad whose AI can be set to specific tactics.
• Equipment is summoned and grants abilities to upgrade and master; sacrificing a summoned hero passes its abilities to another, for builds from a lightning-fast assassin to a magic-wielding archer.
• A PvP arena with 4v4, 3v3, 2v2 and 1v1 modes, ladders, fame and rewards, and cross-platform multiplayer.
• Loot, levels and rewards throughout, with in-app purchases, and the game localised into 26 languages.
