Enjoy crazed pixel combat in I Am the Hero

Ratalaika and Crazyant are bringing their PC hit, I Am The Hero, to the Switch. A pixel art, beat 'em up, fighting game featuring a hero with a glorious but mysterious past.

Modes include a single-player campaign, level-based co-op and online co-op survival mode
