Bandai Namco Games began streaming the opening sequence from Heroes' Vs, the new game that combines fighting action with card battles, on Tuesday. Icons from three major franchises — Gundam, Kamen Rider, and Ultraman — join forces in the latest in Banpresto's Compatible Hero crossover franchise. Yoshifumi Ushima and Shinichi Ishihara performs the opening theme song "Dead or TwinAlive."
The game will allow players to go down different story modes as the popular villains and heroes fight for their dreams. There will be 18 main playable characters, as well as fully-voiced battle sequences, and combo attacks.
