Prepare your hazmat suits, because the post-apocalyptic action roguelike Ground Zero Hero from publisher Acclaim, Inc. and Australian indie developer Rowan Edmondson will officially be released on Nintendo Switch 2 on August 20, 2026.
What is the game about?
The project attracts attention with its bright hand-drawn visual style, inspired by the animated series "The Simpsons" and "Rick and Morty".
