Headup Gmes announced that developer The Bitfather’s nostalgic rouguelike RPG, Pixel Heroes: Mega Byte & Magic is coming to Nintendo Switch on November 5, 2021 with exclusive modes. The Switch version features the exclusive new Arena mode, a new campaign, new dungeons and new heroes.
With a retro-pixel art style and an 8-bit soundtrack, Pixel Heroes transports you back to the 80s to deliver an old-school experience that draws on elements of the RPG and roguelike genres. The game features 33 unique hero classes to unlock, each with their own individual skills and attributes, four unlockable campaigns, including the new “The Legend of Hack Hammerson” campaign, each with its own final dungeon and boss, and heaps of procedurally generated axes, spears, spells, crossbows and more to add to your arsenal.
In the new Arena mode, exclusive to Switch, players can freely choose a party from the entire hero pool and take them into a series of infinite battles that get harder as you progress. Special bonus effects can be selected to modify the next battle, making it easier, or more rewarding.
