You've seen Heroes like Claire, Matt, and Peter struggle to fit into the world, while figures like Rebel and Hana Gitelman guide from behind the scenes. Now it's your turn!

In the Heroes: Survival game, you will create a new Hero. Your new friend will face the daily struggles of life as a person with a secret ability. These challenges will take their toll, and a weakened Hero makes mistakes, even dies. Make contact with your Hero regularly to find out what is going on in their lives and how you can help.

Your Hero is not the only former fugitive struggling to fit back into society. In the accompanying Heroes iStory, "The Civilian," ex-government double agent Rachel Mills starts a new life as a small-town cop. But soon she begins receiving requests for assistance from all over the world. If your Hero thrives enough to attract unwanted attention, they may find Rachel Mills at the door to help!

Like your Hero, the game will evolve dramatically in the months ahead. Soon, successful Heroes may find that survival requires banding together. But not every faction will define "hero" in the same way. Keep your friends close!
