Hero Up!
On a breezy Tuesday afternoon in San Francisco, game developers Gazillion and the Amazing Society pulled back the curtain and unveiled “Super Hero Squad Online” to the public for the first time.
With a stunning CG trailer landing just days prior to the event, there’d been much buzz and heightened expectations for “SHSO.” Luckily, the game—a massively multiplayer online title aimed at kids but full of fun and surprises for gamers of all ages—looks and plays like a dream, and the gathered journalists and insiders were bowled over.

In “Super Hero Squad Online,” you’ll amass a collection of Marvel heroes from Spider-Man to Wolverine to War Machine to many more. You’ll always be the hero, never the sidekick. In social spaces—where you hang out, meet your friends and find stuff to do—you’ll be able to take any of your characters and use them to explore, discover and interact. Taking your characters into missions, you’ll form a squad with other players and embark on short, but satisfying missions. Take on Skrulls, foil Doctor Octopus’ plans for domination and kick some ninja butt—you’ll be able to jump in and complete missions in about 15 minutes!

A game this spectacular, this amazing surely requires a super-powered console or high-end gaming computer to play, right? Heck no! “Super Hero Squad Online” is playable directly in your browser, on just about any computer. Mac, PC, Linux—as long as you can get online and browse around, you can Hero Up with your friends and jump into “SHSO.”
