With a gripping storyline and rich characters, Heroes in videogame format will offer people a chance to interact directly with the series' charismatic characters and universe that will appeal to both fans of the series as well as gamers.

After 'Lost', this is the second big project based on movies that Ubisoft is currently working on. As no platform has been announced for Heroes yet, but if it follows the footsteps of Lost: The videogame, then for this time also, it will be hard to get the game on the Wii, because Lost is available on the PC, Xbox360, and PS3.

Tim Kring, executive producer and creator of Heroes says:

We are very excited to be making the 'Heroes' videogame with Ubisoft. Time and again, Ubisoft has proven they can turn licensed properties into fantastic games.

No precise release date has been mentioned for the game, but could be in stores sometime in 2008.
