Conspiracy Entertainment and Epicenter Studios are pleased to unveil

Heroes: Firefighter”. The game, set for an August 2009 release, and
developed in cooperation with a 27-year firefighting veteran, will
challenge players to take on the role of a rookie firefighter as they
strive to save both lives and property from a series of fires raging
through a major metropolitan area. “Real Heroes: Firefighter” is
rated E10+, and will be released to retail at a family-friendly price
point (MSRP - $29.99 USD), with a percentage of proceeds being donated
to the Firefighter Cancer Support Network.

The cast of voice actors for “Real Heroes: Firefighter” includes –

series “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” Marsters will be playing Louis
“Match” Morris, the veteran seen-it-all tough guy.

* Michael Jace – coming off his sixth season as Officer Julien Lowe
from the hit TV series, “The Shield,” Jace will be voicing Lt. Dylan
Scott, the second-in-command of the player’s fire dept.

* Jamie Kennedy – a popular comedian and actor, Kennedy will be the
game’s comic relief as he voices Marc “Cam” Cameron, a younger
firefighter who is more brawn than brain.

* Jenette Goldstein – best known for her role as Private Vasquez in
the classic film “Aliens,” Goldstein will play Esmerelda “Ezzy”
Vasquez, a tough-as-nails firefighter with a bit of a chip on her
shoulder.

* Jack McGee – a staple of firefighting films and TV such as
“Backdraft” and “Rescue Me,” McGee will voice Ed Martin, the veteran
Engineer of the firefighting team.

* John Di Maggio – having provided voices for dozens of characters
including Bender from “Futurama,” and Marcus Fenix in “Gears of War”,
Di Maggio will take on the role of Captain Tomihiro Kotaka, the
no-nonsense leader of the squad.

Developed by Epicenter Studios, "Real Heroes: Firefighter" emphasizes
non-violent, game-integral puzzles and challenges that mirror the
on-the-fly choices firefighters face every day. Featuring Epicenter's
proprietary "Thinking Fire" technology, blazes will seem almost alive
as they not only attack structures, potential victims and
firefighters, but also cause unexpected changes to the environments
that will suddenly alter the player's options and strategies. No two
scenarios will play out the same way in "Real Heroes: Firefighter."
