Game Rant is giving fans an exclusive first look at the latest trailer for “Big Helmet Heroes.” This new video provides a quirky sneak peek into the varied levels and battles of this entertaining beat-em-up, and it’s the final preview before the game hits shelves in early February 2025.
Developed by the French game studio Exalted Games, “Big Helmet Heroes” is their sophomore title. It stems from the same intellectual property as their inaugural game, “Big Helmet Heroes: PVP Arena,” which debuted as an Android exclusive back in 2022. Unlike its predecessor, this new installment is set to be available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC.
Just ahead of the game’s upcoming release, publisher Dear Villagers has dropped another trailer, which Game Rant is thrilled to unveil. Beginning with a touch of humor in pre-rendered scenes, the 81-second footage quickly jumps into the gameplay action. While you can certainly play “Big Helmet Heroes” solo, it’s crafted to shine as a local co-op beat-em-up, a point that the trailer plays up repeatedly.
### Big Helmet Heroes Promises Great Character and Enemy Variety
In a nod to the classic beat-em-up tradition, “Big Helmet Heroes” doesn’t skimp on enemy variety. This launch trailer hints at the diverse cast of mobs and bosses players will brawl against, from goblins to robot scorpions, metal dragons to something resembling a siege weapon, and even a giant version of one of the heroes. The game seems to have a penchant for massive enemies, some so monumental they barely fit on the screen—a detail you can catch around the 62-second mark. As for character options, the game promises an impressive lineup with 29 heroes to choose from.
### Where To Buy Big Helmet Heroes
Mark your calendars for February 6, when “Big Helmet Heroes” officially launches. It’ll be priced at $24.99, but for those eager to dive in a bit earlier, there are pre-order discounts available on certain platforms. You can snag the game for $19.99 on Xbox Series X/S and Steam until the official release, with a similar deal on the PlayStation Store for PS Plus subscribers. Unfortunately, the Switch version isn’t up for pre-order.
For collectors and co-op enthusiasts, a physical edition will be available for the PS5 and Switch starting April 10. Meanwhile, those who pre-order the PC version can get a head start, playable as early as February 3.
This new beat-em-up adventure by Exalted Games, brought to you by Dear Villagers, promises an engaging mix of action, humor, and variety that fans of the genre are sure to enjoy.
