In case you can’t get enough of SNK Collections, World Heroes Gorgeous is set to come out in Japan on October 18. The package contains the Neo-Geo versions of the four World Heroes games: World Heroes, World Heroes 2, World Heroes 2 Jet and World Heroes Perfect. The bonus features introduced in the collection are meager. You get a costume color editor, a practice mode and a built in move list. Nothing special here, but the games alone are well worth the $15 price point SNK has been releasing other collection at in North America. Let’s hope SNK picks this up for the US because World Heroes Gorgeous runs for 5,040 yen ($44) in Japan!
It would be nice to see this released in N.A. too, but even if that happens, it’ll be a while.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it showed up as a download somewhere, someday.

I’d buy it alone for World Heroes Perfect, the definite game in the series. While I’d love nothing more than to see World Heroes Gorgeous get shipped into retail stores in America nationally at $15, I can’t help but wonder if SNK would actually risk bringing this over knowing the series small cult following.
World Heroes has garnered a reputation among gamers as nothing more than a Street Fighter II clone, despite ADK’s best efforts to relinquish these claims with World Heroes 2 and its successors.
