As the winter chill sets in, new game launches become a rare treat. With the holiday season approaching, people are more inclined to focus on gift-giving rather than diving into mobile gaming. Yet, occasionally, a title like Heroes United: Fight x3 emerges, catching our attention in the gaming world.
At first glance, Heroes United: Fight x3 appears to be a standard 2D hero-collecting RPG. You assemble a team of diverse characters to battle against waves of enemies and challenging bosses. While the genre is familiar, Heroes United doesn't initially stand out from the crowd.
However, a closer look at the game's social media and official website reveals something intriguing. Among the characters, you'll spot some remarkably familiar faces - Goku, Doraemon, and Tanjiro, to name a few. These appearances raise eyebrows, as they seem unlikely to be officially licensed.
I've seen that face before (like the Grace Jones song)The inclusion of such iconic characters without apparent licensing is bold, to say the least. It's almost refreshing to witness such a blatant attempt at leveraging popular IPs, reminiscent of the early days of mobile gaming when "shovelware" was more common.
While it's hard to discuss Heroes United: Fight x3 without a chuckle, it's also a reminder of the vibrant landscape of mobile gaming.
