Capes, the strategic turn-based superhero tactical RPG crafted by Spitfire Interactive (@Spitfire_IA) is set to make its grand debut on May 29th across Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4/5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Spitfire Interactive is a scrappy Australian indie studio, formed by industry veterans, making their debut title Capes. Drawing upon experience that reaches back to Freedom Force (2002) and Teen Titans (2006), Spitfire is reimagining superhero tactics for a new age while learning from the past. Capes brings together a unique blend of classic influences including comics like Days of Future Past, Astro City, or Watchmen, and elements of games such as XCOM and Into the Breach.

The super villains won. 20 years later, in a time when people with superpowers are arrested and taken off the streets, a ragtag group of young heroes fight to liberate King City. Under the questionable guidance of Doctrine, one of the city’s last surviving Capes, this new team must learn to work together, uncover The Company's secrets, and find out whether they're strong enough to become the heroes King City needs them to be.

Recruit other emerging superheroes and take on The Company across a challenging hand-crafted tactical campaign. Tackle smaller stakes and learn to wield your team's powers in optional "patrol missions."
