With its June release date chugging ever nearer, a series of new details concerning Ubisoft’s its upcoming child-friendly title for the Nintendo Wii, Emergency Heroes, have emerged.

Emergency Heroes is specifically being designed for a younger gaming audience, which might explain why its protagonists are the ‘what-children-want-to-be-when-they-grow-up-favourites’, a police officer, fire-fighter and aeroplane pilot.

There are very little details on its gameplay as yet, but as it is a free-roaming title, we’d imagine it would involve speeding around the cityscape, taking care of any emergency calls that emerge (of which there will be many, we’re sure). In fact, the above screenshot alludes to an arcade-type experience on one mission; with gamers set a time limit to collect a number of items/complete a mini-objective.

To ensure players don’t lose their way while taking control of some 48 vehicles, Emergency Heroes features a fully-fledged global positioning system.
