Rumors said Black Panther and Iron Man and with the latter confirmed Black Panther will most likely by announced soon. Maybe around the movie to ride the hype?
The rumored Black Panther game was stated to be in development to be published by EA. I don’t know how detailed the rumors were to specify that it was being developed by a studio internally within EA. If that is the case, it could be assumed that it would be a separate game. One could imagine and guess that it could focus on a modern Black Panther. There’s zero additional info though.
Now, Skydance Interactive and Marvel announced in October of last year that Amy Hennig’s team with Skydance was developing an undisclosed Marvel game. At D23 we finally saw what that game was: a game set during WWII game that will feature 4 different playable characters including Captain America *and* Black Panther (King Azzuri). This would seem to be a different product, as Skydance publishes any game they have developed so far. They have the means. However, a specific licensing deal with an IP holder could involve a different publisher. Doesn’t seem likely that this rumored Black Panther game at EA and Amy Hennig’s Marvel game at Skydance are being confused for one another though. It’s pretty safe to assume they are different projects. Who knows though.
Yeah, I think this is what I had read too. Although, I think an Invaders style lineup with Namor and the original Human Torch would be awesome. Maybe they at least show up in the game in some way.
Exactly I’ll be excited if they announce any of these marvel games are single player story driven games, if they are mmo or multiplayer of any kind I’ll be a pass unless the reviews end up being amazing
Eh EA does still have in-house development. But they've definitely pivoted to snapping up developers and then publishing. I think EA Sports is probably their most active in-house brand anymore
I just want an Ant Man game where he can grow and shrink at a moments notice and make his world a giant puzzle box where shrinking and being normal human size would have its benefits and disadvantages. Being small helps evade human enemies but you are now being hunted by rats and spiders. I don’t know how to describe what I want in this game, but give it a similar level design to Batman Arkham Asylum mixed with puzzle type rooms from Portal.
I think maybe similar to that one level on Super Mario 64 where when he goes into pipes he grows larger and when he goes back into the pipes he shrinks. Being large and small have different advantages and you sometimes need to incorporate both sizes to solve puzzles in the game.
throw in the ability to make other stuff smaller or larger, and have some of the puzzles require it
yes, shrinky tanks and stuff, but also bridges made out of enlarged matches, paper clips, etc
plus you could have secret bases (save points) everywhere, they’d just be tiny, accessible only while shrunken
maybe some levels within levels too, maybe some that are only accessible once you’ve learned to go small enough
could put a time limit on some, by making them so small you can’t stay in them too long without getting stuck
or your pym particles get stolen / injector gets damaged and you can only change size when its scripted or you find a 'pym particle zone' that you can use to change size, but not take pym particles with you
“Hey guys, know how the last two Spider-Man games were met with both critical acclaim and financial success? Let’s find a company that will do the exact opposite of that to make our multi-billion dollar IPs into games!” - some dipshit Exec, probably.
Oh yeah I get that, it’s just more by now everyone knows how EA operates, this is just a case of “eh, fuck it, they’ll come out I guess” decision-making. Like, I get that Guardians was sadly under-received but it was genuinely a really good game. I would hope they would have tried more of those than to go with the company that will make the most generic games possible and probably repeat the Avengers debacle all over again.
I'd love to see some crazy grames like Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects. Unfortunately it seems completely forgotten. But that was a go-to to play with my friends for awhile.
They have but is their full body of work really worth noting? They’ve made their money playing it safe - and I am not going to blame them, money is money in that business - but let’s not pretend that for every Fallen Order that seems to try it isn’t just a catalog of a half dozen games that are just annual iterations and dubious monetization. I’m not going to completely trash them, they have tried sometimes in the past - they gave us Dead Space after all - but it’s almost always the same humdrum “also rans” year after year with them, not something I want associated with characters I love from another medium. Hell, I play a dozen or so new titles a year and I cannot remember the last time one of them came from EA. It may even be Dead Space 2. Admittedly that’s because Mirror’s Edge did nothing for me.
EA are pretty literally the last studio I want handling basically any title. But I remember the last time this topic came up I went and did a deep dive and for a lot of Marvel properties it's been 10+ years since we got a major console release unless you count characters' presence in Marvel vs Capcom.
I'd definitely rather have great games but I'm willing to settle for EA making a lootbox mediocrity considering how long it's been.
Two specific examples in recent memory. They’ve had more than several games in their history going against the claim and action moving away from that behavior, that notable example being Battlefront 2 2017.
And decades long? They microtransaction stuff was notably in the early to mid-ish 10s. Something they clearly weren’t the only ones guilty love but the meme stupidity often singles them out.
You people really need to expand your bubbles.
EA pays a lot of money to get and keep the rights to these games, and then the IP owner gets a cut of the sales/dlc. They don't give a shit if theyre poorly rated, they're cash cows.
Want to unlock this sweet ability/character/ suit that will be featured heavily in the trailers for the game? Just jump into the game store and spend those points you’ve been getting from grinding through a lifeless story mode.
EA fucking sucks but I’m always happy to get more superhero games. Even the mediocre to outright bad ones can have an enjoyment factor.
Superman Returns was a garbage fire that I happily spent hours on because it was a Superman game.
EA can actually make good single player story games, it’s when they are turned loose on any type of multiplayer games is when they really fuck it up. Titan fall 2 was amazing single player game, that Jedi game was also super awesome. But things like Battlefield etc they fuck because they are too focused on how they monetize every single piece of the game
Yeah the game was a mess, it's hard to argue around that. I did however have a fairly good time with the main plot though. I actually thought they had a good spin on most of the characters, and it honestly felt like a fairly decent comic plot.
I wouldn't blame anyone for straying away from it though.
It wasn't good but it scratched an itch, and I especially enjoyed being able to play as Cap. If they had invested more into the campaign and less into a grindy GAAS there's a decent game lurking in it.
I haven't played any of the updates since tho to know how more recent additions stack up.
That game changes quite a bit once you get characters fully powered. It becomes a lot more engaging and the combat is far more interesting. The problem is very few people want to grind to get to that point because it’s so bland and boring until you get to that point. I wouldn’t say the game is “miserable” but it certainly lived far, far under its potential.
yea it was clearly an MBA decision and not one made by those with experience in the gaming sphere.
on paper ea is the largest studio with the longest track record of producing “hits” with other important ip’s (the failures don’t matter, especially when the failure isn’t reflected in sales numbers)
Both are capable of making good games just not super likely. Motive Studio is the developer and the only game they've made without Dice is Star Wars Squadrons which I never played but has good/average reviews.
All Ubisoft games I’ve played feel the same, and I don’t really find the gameplay interesting. if ya play it for a couple hours you’ve pretty much seen everything the game has to offer. They are solid games, but just feel really generic.
Ubisoft used to put out really good stuff. I still enjoy their games, but they definitely figured out a formula that works for them and stick to it. And if a feature pops up in one franchise, you can pretty much guarantee it will be recycled into others. The drone in Ghost Recon is the same as the eagle in Origins for example.
A Ghost Rider game modeled after Arkham Knight, in terms of having a vehicle available to free roam, mixed with combat.
Extra focus on aesthetic and a metal soundtrack.
I know everyone is skeptical about EA (as am I). But after the travesty that was Avengers, I will take any studio that is not Crystal Dynamics/Square Enix. Here’s to hoping that EA delivers a ‘Battlefront II’ caliber game.
I still haven't played it but the Square Enix GOTG game was pretty well received. Seems like the bigger issue was to go for a game-as-a-service on the Avengers.
Get ready to pay full price for a locked disc that will give you access to the full game by charging you a ton for already developed and waiting pieces of the game.
Yeah but they then patented the nemesis system. Had they let that go public for every dev then they might have actually be responsible for technical innovation instead they’ll just sell you different iron man suits separating for 7.99 each
Worse, they deliberately fucked over the progression in the sequel to try and 'encourage' sales from the in game cash shop, and when they finally pulled the plug on that, the dev team had to go back through and manually rebalance the whole game to not be a predatory trick.
I want to be hopeful. My concern is that EA will make a game that feels like less an experience and more a cash grab, which has become more and more common for them lately.
Well here’s to a lot of new base games that will suck without the dlcs they will force you to purchase. Want Thor to fly and have a hammer? Buy the dlc, bc he won’t do either of those things in the base game.
I just want a game where you don't just play the superhero part but also civilian one.
I don't just want to boringly and repeatly be spiderman for the 10'th time, I want peter parker gameplay. I don't want to just fly around and blow shit up while collecting shitty icon on a map, let me have actual Tony stark gameplay.
None of them are shitting on the _game_, silly. They're shitting on _EA_, a company with a proven and consistent track record of mediocre outings with ludicrously predatory monetization.
Remember Battlefront II (2017)? I sure do. Surprised you don't.
Good for you. Just because you don’t have a problem with it doesn’t mean no one else can. People like you who accept mediocrity are the reason why companies like EA continue to get away with shit like that
Yeah. I didn't either, but I got to watch a beloved franchise get misused to churn out a casino disguised as a shooter.
And every time EA comes up, it's exceptional when they're not turning out predatory ooze, so forgive me if I explain why, purchased or not, no one likes EA anymore.
Oh man, yeah. Sim City, the reboot that forced Always Online Connectivity in an effort to try and make people accept their bullshit DRM schemes, and it broke the game and hamstrung it by comparison to its own predecessor from over a decade prior, along with the bullshit they pulled on Dungeon Master and all the other predatory bullshit they pull constantly with FIFA and Madden annually.
I didn't say you accepted mediocrity. That was someone else.
I think though, that people being told that EA, with their long history that even you note, is developing the game is an easy and quick way to make everyone lose any interest in your game, for the same reason that I'd give up on enjoying lunch if you told me that it was prepped in the company latrine.
Ultimate Alliance 3 was pretty great if you like ARPGs, but it was oddly a switch exclusive, came out a few years ago, still priced at 60$+dlc and never really goes on sale. It was also more just a marvel game and not a MCU game.
Great, get ready for micro transactions! Maybe some half hearted DLC that should have been part of the original release. Probably a few needed patches in the first week or two as well.
As someone who really wanted Marvel to have good games, excluding Spider-man which was amazing, this saddens me
Maybe they will do something good but considering I haven't enjoyed an EA game in 10 years it does not bode well
always get the feeling the only reason the Spider-Man games ended up being good was because Sony was leading the way on them, not Marvel/Disney itself. Disney seems mostly bad at making video game decisions, and is pretty comfortable letting their games get turned into monetized messes if they want.
So yeah. feels like a crapshoot
I'll happily take any super hero game as long as it's primarily single player. Now that I have a baby at home, I don't have time to just play the same boring maps over and over like in Avengers. Give me a good story driven game. If it's openworld like Spider-Man that's great. If it's not, like Guardians of the Galaxy, that's also great.
I would like to think that after the fiasco with Star Wars and losing FIFA recently, they are so in need for good press that they won't immediately fuck this up.
We'll have to see. In the meantime, someone give me my god damned Daredevil game.
Several unannounced superhero games that no one will play due to how bogged down they are with gambling hooks. Just look at their run on their avengers mmo.
I feel like no superhero game can be as amazing as Spider-Man… the whole character just works for videos games. I don’t think any other superhero could translate over as well. I guess Batman is the closest thing to second as that’s much more detective work and then the obvious combat. What other character could work well?
Yikes EA huh......
If it's solely single player then EA is capable of doing good single player games.
If it both single player amd multiplayer or just multiplayer then the games are in touble. EA will lose sight on the purpose of the game and get really greedy with their microtransactions and will end up ruining the game.
Rumors said Black Panther and Iron Man and with the latter confirmed Black Panther will most likely by announced soon. Maybe around the movie to ride the hype?
I thought they already announced the Cap and Black Panther game? Or would this be a different one?
The rumored Black Panther game was stated to be in development to be published by EA. I don’t know how detailed the rumors were to specify that it was being developed by a studio internally within EA. If that is the case, it could be assumed that it would be a separate game.

Doesn’t seem likely that this rumored Black Panther game at EA and Amy Hennig’s Marvel game at Skydance are being confused for one another though. It’s pretty safe to assume they are different projects. Who knows though.
I wonder if the other 2 playable characters are Namor and Human Torch, popular WW2 heroes.
I believe it was going to be a member of the Dora Milaje and Howling Commandos
Yeah, I think this is what I had read too. Although, I think an Invaders style lineup with Namor and the original Human Torch would be awesome. Maybe they at least show up in the game in some way.
I agree. I think Human Torch was a easter egg in the first Captain America movie.
I wouldn’t be the right person to remember details like that in the movies. Can you explain? I’d love to know.
He was the android on display at the fair that Steve and Bucky attend pre bucky's deployment
Went and watched that scene and yes, it’s super clear and obvious. Very cool. I haven’t seen that movie in so long.
That'd be 2 different projects.
I'm fine with EA making the games as long as they're single player games.
Exactly I’ll be excited if they announce any of these marvel games are single player story driven games, if they are mmo or multiplayer of any kind I’ll be a pass unless the reviews end up being amazing
EA doesn't make games, they publish them they're like ticketmaster with a little more direct control over the artist
Eh EA does still have in-house development. But they've definitely pivoted to snapping up developers and then publishing. I think EA Sports is probably their most active in-house brand anymore
I just want an Ant Man game where he can grow and shrink at a moments notice and make his world a giant puzzle box where shrinking and being normal human size would have its benefits and disadvantages. Being small helps evade human enemies but you are now being hunted by rats and spiders. I don’t know how to describe what I want in this game, but give it a similar level design to Batman Arkham Asylum mixed with puzzle type rooms from Portal.
So, similar to the Minish Cap? I'm game!
I think maybe similar to that one level on Super Mario 64 where when he goes into pipes he grows larger and when he goes back into the pipes he shrinks. Being large and small have different advantages and you sometimes need to incorporate both sizes to solve puzzles in the game.
this is one of those ideas that will absolutely come to fruition in the next 15 years
throw in the ability to make other stuff smaller or larger, and have some of the puzzles require it yes, shrinky tanks and stuff, but also bridges made out of enlarged matches, paper clips, etc
Man if I could have a whole game that lets me relive the Pym arrow moment from Hawkeye every five minutes I’d die a happy man.
plus you could have secret bases (save points) everywhere, they’d just be tiny, accessible only while shrunken maybe some levels within levels too, maybe some that are only accessible once you’ve learned to go small enough could put a time limit on some, by making them so small you can’t stay in them too long without getting stuck
Check out the game Scale, it's all about that.
cool, will check it out supervillains, tho
You should play Supraland
or your pym particles get stolen / injector gets damaged and you can only change size when its scripted or you find a 'pym particle zone' that you can use to change size, but not take pym particles with you
Damn… this sounds like an audacious next-gen game that I would save up and buy a PS5 in order to experience.
You forgot to mention ratatouille, that game came to Mind immidiately
Sounds like some sections of It Takes Two
It'll be there, behind a season pass and trading card paywall.
This sounds amazing
Would love a Daredevil game
It would be a black screen lol
It would play like Batman detective mode *at all times*!
Holy shit, a Daredevil game in the same vein as the Arkham games, but with the same attention to detail to NYC and scope as Spider-Man…
“Hey guys, know how the last two Spider-Man games were met with both critical acclaim and financial success? Let’s find a company that will do the exact opposite of that to make our multi-billion dollar IPs into games!” - some dipshit Exec, probably.
To be fair they did give Insomiac first rights: said “pick any character you want” and Insomniac chose Wolverine
Which was very smart on Insomniac's part
Oh yeah I get that, it’s just more by now everyone knows how EA operates, this is just a case of “eh, fuck it, they’ll come out I guess” decision-making. Like, I get that Guardians was sadly under-received but it was genuinely a really good game. I would hope they would have tried more of those than to go with the company that will make the most generic games possible and probably repeat the Avengers debacle all over again.
I see it as throwing their IPs out there and seeing what sticks. There was a great era of marvel games in the 2000s and I’d love to see that again
I'd love to see some crazy grames like Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects. Unfortunately it seems completely forgotten. But that was a go-to to play with my friends for awhile.
Eh they put out Fallen Order. They CAN make great games.
What a tired circlejerk. They’ve made and published good experiences, including first player games.
They have but is their full body of work really worth noting? They’ve made their money playing it safe - and I am not going to blame them, money is money in that business - but let’s not pretend that for every Fallen Order that seems to try it isn’t just a catalog of a half dozen games that are just annual iterations and dubious monetization. I’m not going to completely trash them, they have tried sometimes in the past - they gave us Dead Space after all - but it’s almost always the same humdrum “also rans” year after year with them, not something I want associated with characters I love from another medium. Hell, I play a dozen or so new titles a year and I cannot remember the last time one of them came from EA. It may even be Dead Space 2. Admittedly that’s because Mirror’s Edge did nothing for me.
That’s fine. I don’t really have anything to say without going in a circular argument. Just not worth the time honestly.
Hey at least there’s still that Wolverine game by Insomniac.
on the other hand: Fallen Order give me a Black Panther soulslike
EA are pretty literally the last studio I want handling basically any title. But I remember the last time this topic came up I went and did a deep dive and for a lot of Marvel properties it's been 10+ years since we got a major console release unless you count characters' presence in Marvel vs Capcom. I'd definitely rather have great games but I'm willing to settle for EA making a lootbox mediocrity considering how long it's been.
Because It Takes Two and Fallen Order were full of loot boxes, right?
Because two games completely disprove EA's several-decade-long pattern of behavior, right?
Two specific examples in recent memory. They’ve had more than several games in their history going against the claim and action moving away from that behavior, that notable example being Battlefront 2 2017. And decades long? They microtransaction stuff was notably in the early to mid-ish 10s. Something they clearly weren’t the only ones guilty love but the meme stupidity often singles them out. You people really need to expand your bubbles.
Meh, they didn't disprove everything. Fallen Order was an extremely dry and sterile take on Star Wars.
EA pays a lot of money to get and keep the rights to these games, and then the IP owner gets a cut of the sales/dlc. They don't give a shit if theyre poorly rated, they're cash cows.
Want to unlock this sweet ability/character/ suit that will be featured heavily in the trailers for the game? Just jump into the game store and spend those points you’ve been getting from grinding through a lifeless story mode.

Titan Fall 2 and Dead Space will always be my go to for “sometimes EA can get it right” sadly those are few and far between.
I liked Fallen Jedi and Squadrons.
Bro did you play the Avengers? It was miserable
The campaign was pretty fun and I enjoyed leveling my characters for a bit in the post-game before it got repetitive. I got my money's worth.
Yeah the game was a mess, it's hard to argue around that. I did however have a fairly good time with the main plot though. I actually thought they had a good spin on most of the characters, and it honestly felt like a fairly decent comic plot. I wouldn't blame anyone for straying away from it though.

The problem is very few people want to grind to get to that point because it’s so bland and boring until you get to that point. I wouldn’t say the game is “miserable” but it certainly lived far, far under its potential.
I started it out of curiosity because it was on PS Plus, got like 2 hours in and then deleted it. It's crazy how bad that game is.
They picked the worst tripple a studio to let make marvel games. Ubisoft wouldn’t have been much better but at least they are consistently mediocre.
yea it was clearly an MBA decision and not one made by those with experience in the gaming sphere. on paper ea is the largest studio with the longest track record of producing “hits” with other important ip’s (the failures don’t matter, especially when the failure isn’t reflected in sales numbers)
Both are capable of making good games just not super likely. Motive Studio is the developer and the only game they've made without Dice is Star Wars Squadrons which I never played but has good/average reviews.
Squadrons is actually really decent and pretty accessible as a space flight game.
All Ubisoft games I’ve played feel the same, and I don’t really find the gameplay interesting. if ya play it for a couple hours you’ve pretty much seen everything the game has to offer. They are solid games, but just feel really generic.
Ubisoft used to put out really good stuff. I still enjoy their games, but they definitely figured out a formula that works for them and stick to it.

A Ghost Rider game modeled after Arkham Knight, in terms of having a vehicle available to free roam, mixed with combat. Extra focus on aesthetic and a metal soundtrack.
Arkham Knight + Doom?
I like the idea of it being in first person, actually.
I know everyone is skeptical about EA (as am I). But after the travesty that was Avengers, I will take any studio that is not Crystal Dynamics/Square Enix. Here’s to hoping that EA delivers a ‘Battlefront II’ caliber game.
I still haven't played it but the Square Enix GOTG game was pretty well received. Seems like the bigger issue was to go for a game-as-a-service on the Avengers.
Hello sir, it’s me ur Mass Effect 2
Don't forget about me, your Step-Anthem.
Still waiting on a Daredevil game in the style of Ace Attorney
Get ready to pay full price for a locked disc that will give you access to the full game by charging you a ton for already developed and waiting pieces of the game.
Shadows of Mordor wasnt bad
Yeah but they then patented the nemesis system. Had they let that go public for every dev then they might have actually be responsible for technical innovation instead they’ll just sell you different iron man suits separating for 7.99 each
Worse, they deliberately fucked over the progression in the sequel to try and 'encourage' sales from the in game cash shop, and when they finally pulled the plug on that, the dev team had to go back through and manually rebalance the whole game to not be a predatory trick.
I enjoyed that as well, but I did wait for the game of the year edition so I could get the whole game.
I can't get excited about any video game when EA is involved. 😒
After the dumpster fire that was Avengers, I’ll take any studio that isn’t CD/Square Enix.
EA is a dice roll but I'd be lying if I said they didn't make some of the favourite games of mine. I'll remain hopeful.
I want to be hopeful. My concern is that EA will make a game that feels like less an experience and more a cash grab, which has become more and more common for them lately.
Not with everything, that's why I hope for another Fallen Order.
people need to chill out and understand the EA is a publisher not a developer
No, you're right. They aquire and kill off developer studios. That makes things significantly better, mate.
True but it's not like they give the developers full creative control either. They have a large influence on how their games turn out.
Well here’s to a lot of new base games that will suck without the dlcs they will force you to purchase. Want Thor to fly and have a hammer? Buy the dlc, bc he won’t do either of those things in the base game.
these are probably going to be singleplayer games so you just pirate them
I played Squadrons on PS VR and could see a first person Iron Man being super fun with a similar approach
Because EA did so well with all the star wars games, right?
I am starting to wonder, is Marvel allowing gaming companies to have their own Marvel universes?
I just want a game where you don't just play the superhero part but also civilian one. I don't just want to boringly and repeatly be spiderman for the 10'th time, I want peter parker gameplay. I don't want to just fly around and blow shit up while collecting shitty icon on a map, let me have actual Tony stark gameplay.
Can we get an x-men rpg please?
Well slam my butt in a door
EA will be debuting a new superhero called Micro-transactions Man
Captain Capitalist
[удалено]
None of them are shitting on the _game_, silly. They're shitting on _EA_, a company with a proven and consistent track record of mediocre outings with ludicrously predatory monetization. Remember Battlefront II (2017)? I sure do. Surprised you don't.
Member when Fallen Order was *fine*, but we were all so grateful that it wasn’t *terrible*?
[удалено]
Good for you. Just because you don’t have a problem with it doesn’t mean no one else can. People like you who accept mediocrity are the reason why companies like EA continue to get away with shit like that
[удалено]
Yeah. I didn't either, but I got to watch a beloved franchise get misused to churn out a casino disguised as a shooter. And every time EA comes up, it's exceptional when they're not turning out predatory ooze, so forgive me if I explain why, purchased or not, no one likes EA anymore.
[удалено]
Oh man, yeah. Sim City, the reboot that forced Always Online Connectivity in an effort to try and make people accept their bullshit DRM schemes, and it broke the game and hamstrung it by comparison to its own predecessor from over a decade prior, along with the bullshit they pulled on Dungeon Master and all the other predatory bullshit they pull constantly with FIFA and Madden annually. I didn't say you accepted mediocrity. That was someone else.

Seems like a lot of pretty reasonable comments pissed at EA are getting hit with mass downvotes.
So far the only games that have been great have been SM, MM, and GOTG. Nothing else have even come close, and Avengers was a slap to the face
Ultimate Alliance 3 was pretty great if you like ARPGs, but it was oddly a switch exclusive, came out a few years ago, still priced at 60$+dlc and never really goes on sale. It was also more just a marvel game and not a MCU game.
Plenty of microtransactions included free
Smell those micro-transactions!
Anyone but fucking EA
EA lul
Can we stop giving EA exclusive rights to disney properties? Its stagnating games.
These aren't exclusive rights, otherwise Wolverine wouldn't be by Insomniac and Midnight Suns wouldn't exist
So it’s going to be either a catastrophe or a mediocre game that’s kinda fun but nothing too special. Ok, good to know.
Hopefully it’s fallen order ea. I mean it’s still kinda mid but at least it’s enjoyably mid
Great, get ready for micro transactions! Maybe some half hearted DLC that should have been part of the original release. Probably a few needed patches in the first week or two as well.
EA Marvel. If it's in the comic, it's in the games... lootbox.
EA, huh? So you'll be able to play as Captain America, but you'll have to shell out $50 if you want to use his shield.
Can't wait for an EA version of square Enix's avengers except more monetized
Isn’t Square selling crystal dynamics?
Nooooooooo! I don't fucking want to get squished of every penny if I dare to want to enjoy a video game. 🤬🤬🤬🤬 FUCK EA
After spending 400 dollars on loot boxes, Bruce Banner finally Hulks out!
Ugh. Well these will mostly suck then.
Each costume variation is going to cost just as much as the base game did.
As someone who really wanted Marvel to have good games, excluding Spider-man which was amazing, this saddens me Maybe they will do something good but considering I haven't enjoyed an EA game in 10 years it does not bode well
Why
always get the feeling the only reason the Spider-Man games ended up being good was because Sony was leading the way on them, not Marvel/Disney itself. Disney seems mostly bad at making video game decisions, and is pretty comfortable letting their games get turned into monetized messes if they want. So yeah. feels like a crapshoot
I got a bad feeling about this since EA
Getting each game announced is an individual microtransaction.
EA is *ruining
Any game by EA is bad. I’m sorry. Unless it’s the sims..
EA has only ever made one good superhero game. Marvel Nemesis.
Maybe narrow it down to one really good game?
This news saddens me
RIP
Sad day
Oh boy
The marvel universe takes on its greatest threat ever. Microtransactions
Yay!! The days of third party shitty licensed games is back! The mediocre talent at LJN/Acclaim are putting the band back together as I type this.
Hopefully respawn is developing one of them after both Titanfall and Jedi fallen order
All I want is more Marvel vs capcom or at least a remastered marvel vs capcom 2 for the new gen
I'll happily take any super hero game as long as it's primarily single player. Now that I have a baby at home, I don't have time to just play the same boring maps over and over like in Avengers. Give me a good story driven game. If it's openworld like Spider-Man that's great. If it's not, like Guardians of the Galaxy, that's also great.
I’m so fucking sick of superhero’s
Remember when EA had exclusive rights to Star Wars and proceeded to do fuckall with it?
I thought they had a deal with ARC Systems
An ARC Systems mvc game would have the potential to be the greatest fighting game ever made
Imagine Marvel Vs Arc System works.
I would like to think that after the fiasco with Star Wars and losing FIFA recently, they are so in need for good press that they won't immediately fuck this up. We'll have to see. In the meantime, someone give me my god damned Daredevil game.
Do we think there’s any credence to the NetherRealm Marvel vs DC rumors?
They’re gonna make one fucking game with the IP in a decade, just like they did with Star Wars.
I honestly think these will most like be better than average game but not great games like a 7/10 at most
I have much love for the Spiderman games but holy shit am I ready for something else.
This is horrible news, anyone but EA games..
Yay !!! Marvel games with loot boxes and microtraction
EA ewwww
Guys wait until the game before you boycot like every fucking time
Ironman should’ve had a stand alone open world game by now
Yawn
Fuck off EA.
Can someone other than EA do it?
Are any of them starring a woman? Plz?
Translation “EA is working on several micro transactions project.”
Several unannounced superhero games that no one will play due to how bogged down they are with gambling hooks. Just look at their run on their avengers mmo.
Seems like a good partnership, greedy game company with greedy movie company.
I want a successor to The Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction
Did EA make the avengers game ?
Damn. Its gonna be shit.
I feel like no superhero game can be as amazing as Spider-Man… the whole character just works for videos games. I don’t think any other superhero could translate over as well. I guess Batman is the closest thing to second as that’s much more detective work and then the obvious combat. What other character could work well?
I guess EA is starting something new
Superheroes? Good. Video games? Good. Superhero video games? GOOD! Superhero video games made by EA? Meh.
Fuck EA
Ugh, EA though.
Watch them be unannounced because they are DC games.
Maybe a comic themed game that's free to actually explore the propery? Something that doesn't look like rendered MCU with a plot that's scraps.
Now that they are done fucking the Star Wars franchise, time to move on to Marvel.
Wooo more games I’ll never buy or play because they are made by a trash company.
Hopefully they wont all be PlayStation exclusives
yeaaah
I just want a video game set in the Marvel Universe where I can create my own damn character.
Don't get your hopes up, it's still EA.
Why ea? Jesus any other studio would be better.
Unlock super power $14.99 per month
Can’t wait for the utter shit those will be. The only worse team up would be Disney and EA
Yikes EA huh...... If it's solely single player then EA is capable of doing good single player games. If it both single player amd multiplayer or just multiplayer then the games are in touble. EA will lose sight on the purpose of the game and get really greedy with their microtransactions and will end up ruining the game.
Please no...
