88 Heroes - 98 Heroes Edition

The game obsessed with the number eight, 88 Heroes, is coming to Nintendo Switch on October 2nd in North America, October 10th everywhere else.

Dubbed 88 Heroes – 98 Heroes Edition, this version of the game comes packed with the RSG Champions DLC and the H8 Mode DLC. The RSG DLC adds eight characters to the game, all of which being characters from other indie games published by Rising Star Games. The H8 Mode DLC adds two more characters, putting the roster at 98 characters. The H8 Mode DLC also includes 8 new challenging levels.

Rising Star Games describes 88 Heroes – 98 Heroes Edition:

It’s 8:08am on 8th August 1988, and the evil Dr. H8 has brought the world to the brink of total annihilation! His demands are simple: pay $88 octillion within 88 minutes, or Dr. H8’s 88 thermo-nuclear warheads will wipe out the Earth! But who will save us in our time of need? The bravest? The boldest? No… the 88 Heroes!

Prepare to infiltrate Dr. H8’s lair with the help of the strangest, dumbest and most pointless superheroes ever! With 88 levels between you and Dr. H8, only 88 seconds to complete each level and the 88-minute Doomsday clock already ticking, lead a unique band of heroes – each with their own special abilities – on a platform-hopping, enemy-smashing, danger-dodging mission to save Earth from complete destruction. And with ten extra heroes and a new mode featuring eight of the toughest challenges yet, 88 Heroes – 98 Heroes Edition for Nintendo Switch has everything you need to defeat evil once and for all!

If you can’t possibly wait and have access to other platforms, the original 88 Heroes is currently available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Windows PC, Mac, and Linux.
