Ubisoft reveals PowerUp Heroes

PowerUp Heroes is a fresh IP from Ubisoft that lets gamers control their Xbox Live avatar and use powers to defeat other players online.

The game is exclusive to Xbox 360 motion accessory Kinect and features over 20 power suits that gamers can collect. After beating an enemy, players can acquire new abilities.

Gamers can also use their body to attack – whether it’s striking forward to fire projectiles or moving left or right to dodge attacks. Two players can even team up online and take part in double attacks.

PowerUp Heroes features online leaderboards and a range of achievements. It’s due for release later this year.
