Assault Heroes 2 gets May 14 release date

2:51 PM on 04.26.2008, Nick Chester 13 comments

     Xbox 360

You know what game surprisingly ruled? Assault Heroes on Xbox LIVE Arcade. So we need a sequel, and we need it now, I'd say. Well, it's coming, but we'll have to wait until May 14, when the game hits XBLA for 800 MS Points. 

While the game is mostly "more of the same," developer Wanako Studios has added hi-jackable enemy vehicles and more stages. Additionally, on-foot gameplay has been tweaked, with the camera having been pulled in ever-so-slightly to give it a bigger, "fuller "feel. 

With the game coming out in just a few short weeks, keep your eyes peeled for some hands-on impressions as well as more details on Assault Heroes 2

I don't remember if I bought the first or not, I know I played it completely, but just can't remember if it was in my 360 or with a friend, either way, I don't think I would want just "more of the same"

That's my mother's birthday! It's like they're releasing the game just for her.

Yes! I'm ashamed to say that I love playing the original almost more than Ikaruga...

The first one sucked, I regret buying it. Broken online, and many other shitty things.
