Typically notoriously bad, it’s been a minute since we had a movie tie-in videogame that released on Xbox. Therefore, I am willing to give this one a chance. It may not have the voice talents of Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart like the main film, but that won’t affect the gameplay. Find out if this is the movie tie-in that bucks the trend as DC League of Super-Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace launches today on Xbox, PlayStation, PC and Nintendo Switch.
Krypto and Ace are the canine companions of Superman and Batman respectively. After uncovering a plot by Lex Luthor to kidnap the strays of Metropolis, they team-up like their caped crusader owners to foil Luthor.
Krypto comes with his Heat Vision and Arctic Bark abilities whilst Ace has his Batarangs and Shoulder Charges. They will need these attacks to destroy everything Lex Luthor throws at them, including his dreaded LexBots.
Krypto and Ace do have some downtime to relax too, however. It’s a dogs life after all, so how about a pampering at the adoption centre? There they will meet the other stars of the film: Chip, Merton and PB. These guys may also have some upgrades for Krypto and Ace if you ask nicely.
Available to download now, DC League of Super-Pets: The Adventures of Krypto and Ace is on the Xbox Store priced at £34.99. Stay tuned for our thoughts coming very soon.
