Big Helmet Heroes (Not 🌽)

Dear Villagers has announced their zany beat ’em up Big Helmet Heroes will launch on Xbox Series X|S in Q1 2025, with a demo available now on the Xbox Store.

Co-op Combat with Character

Developed by French studio Exalted Studio, this light-hearted brawler features 29 unique heroes to unlock across fantastical worlds inspired by childhood favourites. Players can battle solo or team up locally to face waves of mischievous goblins using an array of weapons from traditional swords to more peculiar options like electric fly swatters. We are getting some serious 3D Castle Crasher vibes here and we LOVE it!

Four Fighting Styles

The game offers distinct combat approaches through its four character classes:

  • The balanced Warrior with sword and shield
  • The powerful but slower Brute
  • The swift, dual-wielding Rogue
  • The agile, staff-wielding Monk
