In an effort to expand its audience, Heroes Reborn has created a companion mobile video game called Heroes Reborn: Enigma. The game, set in an orphanage/ lab for EVOs (evolved humans), can be played on iOs and Android for $4.99. Heroes Reborn: Enigma was written by Heroes creator Tim Kring and the rest of the Heroes Reborn writing staff. Fans can also look forward to a full PC, Mac, console game that was announced to be in the works called Heroes Reborn: Gemini. The games were created by big name game developer Phosphor and released by Imperative entertainment.
The two games tell compelling stories that interlock with the central themes of Heroes Reborn and have been getting great reviews from users and fans. This is just one of the many lengths television networks are going to lately to remain relevant and noticed in the fragmented digital age. However, it is unclear how well this marketing effort is working as the ratings for Heroes Reborn have been on a steady decline since its September 24th premier. This week the show’s 7th episode received a 1.0 rating in the 18-49 group with 3.95 million total viewers. No news yet what effect this downward slope has had on potential renewal for a full season.
