Rock It Games Brings Physical Versions of Critically Acclaimed Firefighting Action and Beloved Alchemy Sim to PlayStation 5

Long Beach, CA. – September 4, 2025 – Rock It™ Games Rock It is pleased to announce two standout titles coming to PlayStation 5 at retail on September 18, 2025: the award-nominated first-person action game Real Heroes: Firefighter HD from Ziggurat Interactive, and the relaxed cozy crafting sim The Smile Alchemist from Kemco.

These two genre-diverse titles offer something for every kind of player, from high-stakes heroics to heartfelt community building.



Real Heroes: Firefighter HD

A first-person “shooter” with a hose, not a gun

● “One of the most unique FPS experiences you’ll find — and one that puts heroism front and center.” – IGN
● “A refreshing change of pace from typical shooters... you’re not destroying, you’re saving.” – Nintendo Life

Originally launched on the Nintendo Wii in 2009 and now remastered for PS5, Real Heroes: Firefighter HD puts players in the role of a frontline hero. Tackle fires with authentic tools as you rescue civilians and stop deadly blazes across nine intense missions - from a burning museum to an out-of-control theme park.

Real Heroes: Firefighter HD puts you in the boots of a first responder tackling deadly blazes in homes, businesses, and anywhere life is under threat. It's a first-person shooter that swaps guns for a high-pressure hose capable of dousing even the fiercest fires, and that creative adaptation of classic FPS mechanics earned Real Heroes: Firefighter an IGN nomination for one of the best shooters for the Nintendo Wii in 2009.

Your trusty hose might be your best friend, but all the tools of the trade are at your disposal including axes and Halligan tools for busting down obstacles, separators to forge new pathways, fire extinguishers for smaller incidents, and even a truck-mounted deck gun when things get serious. Real Heroes: Firefighter HD's career mode sends you to nine stages with multiple locations to salvage, from museums and vast estates to shopping centers and even a theme park. The version launching on PlayStation 5 includes improvements from the HD release, such as support for resolutions up to 4K, bringing new life to this acclaimed sim favorite.



The Smile Alchemist

A cozy, feel-good journey of magic and community

Set in the peaceful town of Polta Kolta, The Smile Alchemist lets players live the life of Nayc, a young alchemist on a mission to spread joy through potions, brews, and kindness. With no time limits and a gentle pace, players can manage their shop, discover new recipes, and befriend quirky townsfolk all on their own schedule.

It’s a heartwarming, low-stress alternative to traditional RPGs, perfect for fans of games like Atelier, Stardew Valley, or Harvest Moon.

It's the little things that matter in Kemco's The Smile Alchemist. Budding item brewer Nayc sets up shop in the cozy little town of Polta Kolta with one mission: making everyone's day just a bit brighter. You'll take on requests from townsfolk, from simple tasks (brewing a magic cup of coffee) to more complicated contracts like concocting a healing potion and prove your worth to friends and rivals alike as the town's pre-eminent alchemist.

When you're not foraging for materials, you'll manage Nayc's shop, hunt down new recipes, and get to know the (mostly) good folks of Polta Kolta in all their quirks, and you can do it all at your own pace. The Smile Alchemist is a relaxed simulator with no hard deadlines, so you can spend your days in the wilderness, double down and focus on improving Nayc's shop before taking on new requests, or craft your alchemist adventure however you see fit.
