When Zeus and Hera give birth to a child, Zeus’s brother Hades is told that when the baby grows up, he will be powerful enough to thwart Hades plans of ruling over Olympus. Angered and willing to prevent this from happening, so the fates give him a potion that will drain the child’s Immortality, thereby turning him into an ordinary human. So Hades sends his most loyal henchmen Pain and Panic to abduct the child, who was given the name of Hercules. The two are nearly successful, until they are heared by an elderly couple, who ends up taking him in as their own, keeping his name of Hercules, living among them as a demigod. Now a teenager, Hercules needs to perform a rite of passage on Earth to prove himself worthy of living with the gods on Mount Olympus. With his plucky satyr sidekick, Philoctetes, along for the ride, Hercules must learn how to use his strength to defeat a series of evil creatures plaguing the Las Vegas area, and eventually find and defeat Hades, now allied with Ares, the god of War, as he was destined to.
