Ubisoft announced that it will be launching an antithesis of the GTA series with the game call Emergency Heroes. This will be available for the Nintendo Wii console.

In Emergency Heroes, you have the option to play as an EMT, police officer, or a firefighter. Unlike in GTA where you have to commit felonies in order progress in the game, Emergency Heroes is an open world rescue driving game. Each profession with have their own futuristic rescue vehicles. There are around 48 vehicle designs.

You can freely explore the city of San Alto, performing tasks along the way. Ubisoft promises that it will be a fun game for the whole family. Two players can play at the same time and form a formidable rescue team to keep the city safe. The game will be controlled using the Wii remote and the Wii Wheel as well.

Anti-violence advocates that are disgusted with the GTA series will now have something to play with. I just hope that they won’t find the scenarios “too realistic” and the portrayal of accidents “too grotesque” for kids.

The game is rated for Everyone.
